Pumpkin and Foam Step 1: Hollow the pumpkin. Consider cutting at an angle so that the top stem remains-or simply use the traditional cut out the top method.

Step 2: Cut floral foam to fit in, but leave extending 1/2 inch above the rim. Soak foam in warm water that has floral preservative added to it.

Ferns In Pumpkin Step 3: Use the bottom fronds of the largest Baker Fern to fill in and around the foam base. Place the 2 medium sized fronds back to back about 6 inches up from the rim.
Triangle Step 4: Arrange in groups of major triangles for centerpiece. Place 3 buds at outermost points.
Filled Angles Step 5: Fill in the angles, but stay below the imaginary lines.
Accents Step 6: Use accents in and around the arrangement.
