For a seasonal display with vintage charm, pair your favorite finds with fall gourds.
Pumpkin Pickin'

If You Collect...

Colanders

Build a tiered centerpiece. To make, cut floral foam to fit into the bowls of the bottom and middle colanders. Create your stack by pushing the two top colanders (footed work best) into the foam. Use mini pumpkins and bittersweet to fill the top tier and the spaces between.

COLLECTING TIP: The punched six-point star pattern on these aluminum colanders dates to the 1950s and '60s. Find similar strainers for around $25 on Etsy.

If You Collect...

Grain Sacks

Show your stripes. Lengths of striped ribbon (similar available at hobbylobby.com) adhered with Mod Podge give white Lumina pumpkins the farmhouse flair of the grain sacks' dependable nubby fabric.

COLLECTING TIP: Grain sacks with yellow and green stripes tend to be rarer and more coveted. Embroidered initials add to the value, too. For a variety of options, check out textiletrunk.com.

If You Collect...

Glass Cloches

Fill 'em up. These domes provide the perfect spot for displaying a selection of Jack Be Little gourds. Hold the cloche or bell jar upside down, and place your gourds inside. Set the base on the dome opening (you can also use a round cutting board or cake stand), and turn right side up.
