5. Stacked Pumpkin Topiary
A pumpkin topiary brings instant curb appeal without a single carve mark. Three graduated faux pumpkins on a dowel create a sculptural look that works from early fall through Thanksgiving.
Mix orange, white, and black pumpkins for a modern farmhouse feel, or go all-orange for tradition. Tuck faux leaves around the base to hide the mechanics.
What You’ll Need
- 3 faux pumpkins in graduated sizes
- Wooden dowel or broom handle
- Urn, planter, or large flowerpot
- Floral foam block
- Faux fall leaves and berries
- Hot glue gun
How to Make
- Press the floral foam firmly into the planter.
- Push the dowel through the foam so it stands upright.
- Thread the pumpkins onto the dowel, largest at the bottom.
- Glue faux leaves and berries around the base to hide the foam.
- Set by your front door and admire your zero-carve masterpiece.
