Sunflowers are perfect for fall centerpieces because they
are in full bloom during late summer and early autumn. There are many
varieties of sunflowers available in different colors and sizes. Make a
bouquet of one type of sunflower, multiple types or add other fall
foliage and flowers together in one arrangement.
-
Gourds are abundantly available in autumn and usually quite
inexpensive in bins at grocery stores. Place a few small gourds and
pumpkins in a basket for a simple, casual centerpiece. Mix and match as
many different colors, shapes and sizes as you wish. You can line the
basket with an autumn fabric.
-
Collect fall leaves, twigs, moss and berries to garnish any
centerpiece arrangement. Combine with gourds, produce, flowers and more
to create a diverse and artistic piece. In many areas twigs with berries
still clinging to them are abundant in the fall but if you don't have
access to them, they can be purchased from a florist.
-
Hollow out a pumpkin and use it as a planter for flowers in
fall colors, like marigolds. Pumpkins are cheapest if you grow them
yourself or get them from a you-pick farm, rather than buying them at a
grocery store or other pre-harvested and shipped outlet.
-
Combine fall fruits and vegetables such as corn, squash,
plums and apples with flowers and any other materials you like in a
basket. If the centerpiece is only used for a day or two, you can still
eat the produce when you are done with it.
