I have been wanting to try these out since I first saw them. They are GORGEOUS and seem to be quite the rage this fall…for good reason! They are stunning. And, honestly who doesn’t love succulents. Tell me one person!??! I dare ya! 🙂

These are so easy to do. I just made two in about an hour. I have a lot of succulents around my house, so I used clippings from those to create these.

I was talking to my new neighbor yesterday (who, lucky me, owns a nursery!! I can pick her brain about plants!). She asked what I was going to do with my pumpkins, so I explained about how I had seen these and wanted to try them out. She was so excited! She had just made a ton for the store of her nursery and gave me all the details.

I couldn’t believe how easy it is. I have seen a few tutorials floating around using tape and other extra things. All my neighbors process required was the plants, pumpkin, moss, and hot glue.

I know what you are thinking! Will the hot glue kill the succulents? The answer is no! They are such a hardy plant. After you are done with these centerpieces you can even clip them off and replant them.

So here was the process I used to make my pumpkin centerpieces.

1. I picked out some Cinderella pumpkins that has a nice dip in the top middle. I did not clip my stem, I used it to help attach my succulents.
2.  I began to place some of the moss around my pumpkin with hot glue.
3. Pulled out my succulents and got rid of the dirt. Then started to arrange it and glue it down with the hot glue.
4. 
5. 

I continued placing and gluing my succulents until I felt it looked nice and full.

I did use A LOT of hot glue, so be prepared to have extra glue sticks on hand. This was a really fun way to bring the outside in and decorate for fall. These would make a gorgeous centerpiece at Thanksgiving and BONUS! Wouldn’t block the view of the person across from you.

I put this one on my piano. So beautiful!
