Gold Foil Pumpkins for Fall Decorating

Looking for Fall decorating ideas? These gold foil pumpkins might be just what you’re after! I am a planner and believe it or not, I am already planning my Thanksgiving dinner. I will be hosting a smaller group of friends and family at my long dining table and am envisioning a gorgeous setting with everything looking lush and elegant. Loving the gold foil pumpkin that we created for the felt succulent project, I decided to keep foiling and make a full set of pumpkins to grace my tabletop and sideboard. We foiled white craft pumpkins, kraft pumpkins and even plum painted pumpkins. Just gorgeous. To finish my look I created a paper flower arrangement inside my larger white craft pumpkin using plum peonies and chocolate cosmos flowers. Now, onto my menu planning. I promise to share some of my go-to gluten-free favorites next month! ~Lia

I just want to say WOW! I just purchased a Janome artistic edge cutter. Mostly for the embroidery capabilities the software has as I own a drapery workroom. I have found a new love! I stumbled across your website and have done nothing but browse your site for days! So far I have only made your poinsettia’s as Christmas is coming. I cannot believe how much fun this is and so many drop dead gorgeous projects you have created. Forget sewing for awhile, I simply cannot get enough of your creations. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words Carol!!! I am so happy and humbled to hear that you are enjoying my projects! Merry Christmas to you 🙂
I wish there were a “thumbs up”, “like” or “love” to click when I see a POST I agree with like this one! I too stumbled across your website and I couldn’t be happier! Best $9.99 a month I’ve ever spent!

Did you score your cosmos? It looks like it in the photo, but I don;t remember seeing that in your instructions. They look great! I used Zig Real Brush Markers on mine and they came out great, but there’s something missing and I think it must be the scoring–Cricut doesn’t show that in design space, but it’s easy enough to do.
As always, thanks for your inspiration. You change lives–you’ve change mine for sure–and for the better!!!!

We actually scored them with the edge of the scissor to give them those lines:-) Thanks again for sharing all your images of your beautiful flowers:-)
Your gold foiled pumpkins are just the perfect thing to make your table scape come alive. Do you have instructions on how to foil pumpkins on your site? I sure would love to make some golden pumpkins for my table.
Thank you so much. I have a tutorial on how to use gold foil in this post https://liagriffith.com/diy-wedding-favors/
The pumpkin arrangement is gorgeous. The flowers you make are stunning, so realistic.
Thank you so much:-)
