Nothing says Fall like pumpkins. In addition to cooking with pumpkins, you can use them for unique table centerpieces. Try these ideas for bringing the natural beauty of pumpkins to your table:

Fill a basket with small pumpkins, winter berries, pomegranates and glory lilies.

White pumpkins are available in many markets. Create an arrangement with white pumpkins in several sizes, leaves, pine cones and seedpods.

Striped yellow pumpkins and small yellow squash can be clustered around a vase of yellow poppies.

Combine orange pumpkins with potted succulents and orange orchids in bright pots.

Fill a ceramic bowl with persimmons and arrange small pumpkins around it.
