How to Make a Thanksgiving Flower Arrangement

Centerpieces are very easy to create. They can decorate a normal everyday table as well as a holiday table. Try making this incredible center piece and enjoy the praise that your family will heap upon you. It is easy and relatively inexpensive to assemble.

Things You'll Need

• Large squash
• Flowers in varied colors
• Potting soil
• Water

Instructions

1. Buy a squash. Carefully cut it open and take out all the seeds and stem from the middle.

2. Use a damp cloth and wash the squash. Let it dry before moving on to the next step.

3. Put enough soil into the squash so that is just about full. Leave room so that the dirt does not overflow from the squash when you put in the flowers and water.

4. Choose flowers that are varied in color. Be sure to arrange it so that the darker colors are closest to the edge of the squash and move inward with lighter colors.

5. Be careful to water the plant everyday.

6. Place the arrangement in the center of the table and set up the rest of your table for the Thanksgiving dinner. Sit back and enjoy the beauty of your hard work.

Tips & Warnings

• Always use caution when using a knife. Cut the squash away from your body and be careful of your fingers.
