Cast glimmering candlelight across the entire table. It’s easy when all you have to do is snap off stems and top pumpkins with votives. Shield the flames by securing glass hurricanes with floral U-pins.

Put your blooms center stage by hiding a water-filled vase inside a hollow pumpkin. Punch it up by adding shiny gold tacks along the ridges.

If you don’t want to deal with the mess that comes from scooping out the gourd, drill small holes in the rind instead. Insert sprigs of colorful berries or fresh flower stems, and you’ll get an equally stunning effect.

Nutty Candles

Everyday containers look festive filled with something new. Unshelled walnuts, chestnuts or almonds can all hold short candles in place. Finish it off by winding a ribbon between each vase.
