Add a twist to your fall decorating. Create your very own "Potted Pumpkins". All you have to do, is take a container, plant it with green ivy, and then simply sit a pumpkin on top! So easy!! This will give the illusion that the pumpkin is growing on the vine. If you have or can find a Terra Cotta pumpkin that looks carved, then just add a light in it and place that on top of the potted ivy. Placed on a timer, your pumpkin will glow at night with out any real flame. I find that variegated creeping fig, pothos, or any houseplant vine, will work just as welll. Even a hanging basket of blooming petunias can work and add a hint of color to your autumn display! The most important thing to remember is to have fun!
