Learn how to make a wonderful coastal pumpkin candle holder to use as a centerpiece that exudes beach ambiance.
The Blue Pumpkin represents the sea while the Air Plants mimick Seagrass. And the candle is a mini Beach Bonfire. And of course sand is used for the cylinder vase, and beach finds for decorations. Melissa who is passionate about gardening and the beach, created this adorable Pumpkin Centerpiece for HGTV Gardens where you find detailed step by step instructions. Here's a quick overview.
You cut off the top of the pumpkin, then scrape it out and remove all the contents. Pour some beach sand into the empty pumpkin to act as a base for your vase.
Then tuck the assorted air plants into the sand around the vase, add some beach finds for decoration, and you have a unique and beautiful pumpkin centerpiece that will last you up to 5 days. This would work with Artificial Pumpkins as well.
