Flowers in a Pumpkin – Fall Floral Workshop

Create a beautiful fresh floral arrangement inside a real pumpkin in this hands-on seasonal workshop at Flower Aura by Natasha,

Pumpkins aren’t just for carving. This one is becoming a floral centrepiece.

Join us at Flower Aura by Natasha for Flowers in a Pumpkin, one of our favourite fall traditions—a hands-on floral workshop combining fresh seasonal flowers with a real pumpkin to create a beautiful and completely natural autumn centrepiece.

We’ll start with a fresh pumpkin and show you how to prepare it properly for floral design. Then the fun begins.

Using a curated selection of fresh seasonal flowers, foliage and autumn textures, you’ll learn how to build a lush arrangement that complements the natural shape and character of your pumpkin.

Each design will be a little different because both the flowers and the pumpkins are real—and that’s part of the beauty of it.

What You’ll Learn

We’ll guide you through:

Information about mechanics for your arrangement

Establishing shape and proportion

Working with focal and supporting flowers

Adding foliage, texture and seasonal details

Creating a balanced, professional-looking finished design

Caring for your flowers and pumpkin at home

No previous floral design experience is necessary. We’ll take you through the process step by step while still leaving plenty of room for your own creativity.

Your completed pumpkin floral arrangement to take home

Flower varieties, colours and pumpkin shapes may vary depending on seasonal availability. Workshop photographs are examples of the overall style and scale rather than an exact flower recipe.

A Little Note About Real Pumpkins

Part of the charm of this design is that we’re working with a real, fresh pumpkin. Like fresh flowers, pumpkins are natural and perishable. Once cut, their lifespan will vary depending on the pumpkin and conditions in your home.

We’ll show you how to prepare and care for your design and recommend displaying it on a decorative plate or tray to protect your furniture as the pumpkin naturally ages.

It’s a fleeting little piece of autumn—which is exactly what makes it special.

Come on your own, bring a friend, or make it a fall outing together.

Advance registration is required. Spaces are limited.

FAQs

Do I need any floral design experience?

Not at all. This workshop is suitable for beginners. We’ll guide you step by step through preparing your pumpkin, creating the floral mechanics and designing your arrangement.

How long will my pumpkin arrangement last?

Both the flowers and pumpkin are fresh, natural materials, so longevity will vary. Once cut, a real pumpkin will naturally begin to deteriorate. Keep your arrangement in a cool location away from direct sunlight and heat, and always display it on a waterproof plate or tray to protect your furniture.

Do I need to bring anything?

No. Your fresh pumpkin, seasonal flowers, foliage, floral supplies and tools are all provided. Just come ready to create!

Will my arrangement look exactly like the photo?

The photos represent the style and approximate scale of the workshop design. Flowers, colours, foliage and pumpkins may vary based on seasonal availability. Working with the best flowers available is part of the experience, so every finished arrangement will be a little different.

Can I bring a child with me to the workshop?

Yes! Children 5–12 may join an adult with a Companion Ticket and share one project. One child/Companion Ticket per full-price ticket. A few extra flower stems are included. Children 12+ who wish to create their own arrangement require a full-price ticket.
