September 1, at 8 am my pumpkin and dried flower arrangement preorder will start on my website. This was one of my top items last season. We sold over 100 arrangements. I only have so many pumpkins so by preordering, you guarantee yourself one will be waiting for you.

These combine two of my favorite things. Flowers and crafting! So, I love, love, love making these arrangements. The arrangement is made with a real pumpkin with your color choice of orange or white and Pinnacle Farms’ dried flowers! This can decorate your home through Thanksgiving and beyond. And makes a beautiful center piece for your table! The pumpkins are considered pie pumpkin size and are approximately 6-7 inches in diameter, but they will vary in size as they are real pumpkins. I guarantee this centerpiece to last until Thanksgiving if kept indoors, in a stable room temperature environment, out of direct sunlight, and not dropped or punctured. These require zero maintenance. The flowers are dried so they don't need watered or spritzed. The flowers on each pumpkin will vary but I will include a sunflower or dahlia as the focal flower on each arrangement.

The cost this year will be $45 per arrangement but on my website, it will be tax included and listed at $48. The pick-up day for the preorder is Friday, September 13 at Barber Orchard Fruit Stand in Waynesville between 9 am and 6 pm. If you need a later pick-up date, I will be happy to do that as well. Just list the day and time to pick-up at Barber’s on the check-out information.
