When it comes to elevating your home, there’s one person you can always count on to pull through – Martha Stewart. The ultimate homemaker, when Martha shares her decorating tips, it would be wrong not to pay attention.
Whether it’s creating a seasonal arrangement or designing the ultimate tablescape, Martha knows her stuff when it comes to fall decorating ideas. So, when I saw her oh-so stylish pumpkin arrangement, I was quick to take note of the ingenious idea.

9″ Carvable Faux Halloween Pumpkin – Hyde and EEK! Boutique™
If you want to create a fall display that lasts all season long, this faux pumpkin is perfect. Scatter them along a shelf like Martha paired with some vintage accents. Oh and it’s carvable too!
While some would be in awe of Martha’s lovingly made pies, my eyes were drawn to the seasonal decorations in her kitchen. She’s transformed her stove into an autumnal centrepiece by placing three large pumpkins on the shelf, alongside three vintage glass turkeys.
The beauty of the arrangement lies in its simplicity; I love that Martha has decorated with vintage items by using the retro glass turkeys to create a nostalgic, festive feel. Paired with the vibrant pumpkins, it feels traditional but still fun. Instead of going for all the usual fall foliage decor ideas, Martha’s clever arrangement feels festive without straying into kitsch or impractical. She’s given a sometimes-neglected area some life, bringing color and fun into an otherwise empty space.
Whether you’re decorating your kitchen shelves or channelling fall table decor ideas and designing your dining table for a festive meal, Martha’s display is so easy to recreate. You can swap out the turkeys for spookier Halloween alternatives, such as skull heads or witches’ hats, and then replace them with more generic fall motifs once the holiday is over.
Martha’s fall decorations might be simple, but they make all the difference in her kitchen. They bring a dose of festivity into the cooking space, and they’re so easy to recreate for any area in the home.
