Fall Decorative Idea

[cookinthehouse]

Ok.. so I have seen the holiday mini catalog and they have the cutest decoration in the Trifle Bowl...

What about a fall idea... does anyone have a picture of something that you are using or have used. Or any ideas... i need a center piece for my show this Friday

I dont have a pic..but..I went to Michaels..and got the green foam for flowers..pine cones..and fall flowers

put the flowers into the top of the foam..and down onto the sides..but just the top of the sides..it got tricky but it was worth it in the end..because I loved it..but..I put the pinecones around the bottom..

Something else you can do..is leave only the bottom of the foam without flowers..then put the base in the bottom..put the pinecones around the base..then put the foam with the flowers on top of the base..does that make sense??

In the past I have filled my Trifle with lemons and limes, you could do with green and red apples. I have also wrapped a swag of fall colored leaves and in the trivle and then put some fall flowers on top.
I love the layers of coffee beans and dried pea's and then a candle on top. Haven't done this one yet, but that is only because of the kids dumping it or playing with them and mixing up the layers.

so the foam how does that get covered so as not to see it ?

by the flowers..but if you leave it showing..then you just put the pine cones around it
