To design an arrangement in a pumpkin, first clean out your pumpkin. Sprinkle flower food on the inside, this will help your carved out pumpkin to last longer. You will then want to insert plastic lining in your pumpkin. This arrangement uses floral foam. After saturating your floral foam in warm water, you are ready to begin! For instructions on how to use floral foam, go to the link 1-800 Flowers.com found at the top left of this page. After clicking the link, go to "Floral care and giving," "using floral foam" is found under the "year round" heading. Some tips for your design:
- You paid for that Bird of Paradise! Make sure you can see it!
- Use the "lid" of your pumpkin as part of your design, attach with wooden peg.
- Add fall leaves to your design.
- To enhance your design, and to make it more suitable for Halloween, put Halloween novelties in it, like ghosts, spiders, cobwebs, or witches!
- Don't forget purple is the new Halloween color. Using purple flowers and foliage can add variety to any seasonal floral arrangement

Floral arrangments in baskets are great for displaying at an office, and they can last a long time if you continue to water them, floral foam needs watered added to it. Sometimes baskets or containers are more advantageous because you don't see they water get dirty when you don't clean it out.
