Laughter, glue and a touch of fall magic filled the room as Weeders Garden Club members created charming pumpkin-and-succulent centerpieces at our September 11 meeting. Each table overflowed with colorful succulents, Spanish moss, and festive fall decorations — the perfect recipe for a creative morning!

Members brought their own small pumpkins and discovered an easy, no-carve method to turn them into seasonal décor. Everything was attached right on top of the pumpkin — no cutting required! Supplies included succulent cuttings, Spanish moss, craft glue, spray adhesive, wooden skewers, and plenty of fall-themed embellishments.

The best part? Sharing ideas, laughter, and inspiration as we worked side by side. Every creation was unique — just like the gardeners who made them.
