Easy Pumpkin Centerpiece

I've been in search of the perfect fall centerpiece for our kitchen table.  
I wanted to make something but didn't really know where to start.  
Then a friend texted me a picture of a pumpkin centerpiece she made.  
It looked so simple.  I ran to Hobby Lobby that afternoon picked up supplies. 
I bought everything for under $10, thankfully they had 40% off all of their fall decor.  
The centerpiece took 10 minutes to make.  It's the perfect addition to our kitchen table. 


Materials: 
Craft pumpkin (any size)
Twine
Decorative fillers (floral stems)
Knife 
Marbles (1 small bag) 

Directions: 
Cut the top off the pumpkin (I would cut the circle smaller next time).  
I used a regular kitchen knife, doing a little at a time. 
I poured the marbles into the bottom of the pumpkin.  
I used marbles for the weight and to hold the stems in place.  
After that, I added the floral/ fall stems.  
It took a few minutes to get them arranged the way I wanted.  
I finished off by tying a bow using twine I already had around it.  
Simple as that.
