Last week we started to create our succulent pumpkin planters again just in time for fall entertaining, gift giving and fall fund raising ideas. If you want to learn how to create on of these yourself, we show you how in our step-by-step How to Create a Succulent Pumpkin Planter article we designed and wrote for our November 2013 newsletter. You can sign up for our newsletter any time and we’ll send you new ideas each month from our big wide world of floral design here in lovely Los Angeles.

Mini white succulent pumpkin planters make perfect gifts to friends and dinner guests. Make them into place setting arrangements that each guest can take home after the party! Flowers by Flower Duet. Photo by Kit Wertz.
We made these particular pumpkins for our friend and colleague Meg Hall, a fantastic Los Angeles celebrity chef who is the owner of Made by Meg, a cafe and catering company based in Redondo Beach with a view of the Pacific Ocean. Each pumpkin had an accent of pink pepper berry — which is the perfect accent to any foodie on your gift list!
