I love the pumpkin centerpiece!! I always do a table centerpiece for fall, with gourds and such, but this is so cute and I can leave it out even longer!!! Thank you so much for the instructions!!
Oh Mary! These pumpkins are adorable. That bow die has been calling my name ever since I laid my eyes on it when I received the new mini. I love the way your creative mind works!! Thanks for this great project.

I love that you’ve brought us another use for the new gift bow die. You can only make so many bows, but this is such a terrific idea. Thanks so much for sharing it with us all!
So cute,thanks for sharing and for the opportunity to win such a great gift!! It is great when I learn different ways to use stamps ands dies!!!thanks !!!!
Wow Mary. Love your fall centerpiece and your idea of using the gift box die in another way!! Thanks for sharing your talent and creativity – it is much appreciated.
I LOVE the stamped texturing on the pumpkins. What a great use of that stamp.
The burlap is perfect for a fall theme. Thanks for making this. It’s got me thinking of other seasonal decor!
What a fun and beautiful centerpiece! I love the “out of the box” idea for the Bow Die! Very cool! Thank you for sharing your time and talents with everyone, Mary!
Mary, these are so cute. You have the many details down just right. The little curliques (oops) and the way you have the little burlap banners hanging is perfect. As are the pumpkins of course. Thanks so much for sharing and I need to go check out the tut.
God bless,
Bonnie S
What a clever idea. I LOVE when there are multiple uses for die cuts. Can’t wait to make these for fall. They will look great on my desk at work. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
Hi!
In Spanish it will be “me encanta”. The English translation will be something like “I absolutely love it”. Kudos for such a great piece and my deepest appreciation for taking the time to put a tutorial together to be share with us. Double awesome.
Oh those pumpkins are so cute. I wasn’t going to order that die, but after seeing that great project, I may just have to add it. I tend to forget that our dies can be used for other projects, besides what they are originally intended for. Thanks for the free tutorial.
What a cute and clever idea! I would have never guessed that you used the gift bow die. I love that idea! Can’t wait to give this a try. Thanks for sharing the free tutorial!
OH my gosh – Mary, you are too, too clever!! What a wonderful idea to use the Bow Die to make pumpkins – I wouldn’t have thought it. Thanks so much for generously sharing your creativity. I always look forward to seeing your latest creations 🙂
LOVE this project!! Too cute! I am so pleased that you have shown another use for this die. I can’t hardly wait to try this.
Thanks for another awesome project!
Great project! I would never have guessed it was that die! Totally amazing! Love the rich colors you gave the pumpkins. Of course, I love the leaves as well. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
I was so stumped, never in a million years would I have guessed the Bow Die, These are beautiful. I would be so honored to win this subscription, honestly anyone who wins is honored.
I’m trying to save pennies to join, but with 4 kids in college its so hard. Keep up the awesome job, I love your blog
Pumpkins have to be my favorite fall decoration. I love them in all shapes and sizes. and am always looking for new ideas for making more pumpkins for my patch. So your project is a perfect fit for me! I love the shapes. Thanks for the tutorial, Mary. It looks like I will be getting the bow die after all. I may not need bows, but I sure do need pumpkins!
I’ve getting more than one way to use a tool or die to get more bang for the buck!! I would use the die to make an apple centerpiece!! I bet that there will be pumpkin centerpieces all over the country in a few days time!!
Thanks for the idea. Will have to make a couple for my Thanksgifing table. They don’t seem like they would be very hard to do. They are adorable. Thanks again.
I just now discovered your blog. What a treasure! Your fall centerpiece is absolutely darling! I’ve been sitting on the fence about getting the Gift Bow die, but no longer…. it’s on my next order! Thank you so much for sharing your creativity!
