Cream Harvest Pumpkins with Berry Sprigs Blanket for Fall

Cream Harvest Pumpkins with Berry Sprigs Blanket shows a scatter of pumpkins in orange, cream, yellow and muted blue, tucked among maple leaves and clusters of red and blue berries. It has no printed words, just a quiet autumn scene that fits right into a living room in October. It suits anyone who starts decorating for fall the moment the air turns cool.

The design piece by piece

Large round pumpkins sit at different angles across the cream background, and each one is shaded in a soft watercolor style. Some are deep orange, some are cream, and a few are a muted blue that adds a cooler note to the warm colors. Between them, maple leaves in rust and gold spread across the surface, along with a few acorns.

Sprigs of tiny red berries and clusters of pale blue berries link the pumpkins together. The leaves are painted with visible brushwork, which gives the whole piece a hand-drawn feel rather than a stiff, repeated pattern. The pumpkins and leaves overlap in places, so the eye keeps moving from one to the next.

The result looks like a harvest table, or a porch in late September when the first leaves have started to fall. It belongs to the classic autumn season, the one that comes before the first frost.

Everyday moments

People who decorate early for fall will notice the blue pumpkins first, since they break up the orange that most autumn designs rely on. Anyone who likes a cozy, lived-in look in the living room will feel right at home with it.

This cream harvest pumpkin blanket works well on the back of a sofa during football Sundays, or folded across the arm of a reading chair on a cool evening. It also fits neatly into a fall display alongside candles, a bowl of apples and a pumpkin on the mantel.

Some people keep it out from September through Thanksgiving, then fold it away until the next year. It is a simple way to bring the feeling of the season into a room every day.

When you need a gift

This is a natural pick for a housewarming in the fall, a birthday in October or November, or a Thanksgiving hostess who loves decorating. Anyone starting a new seasonal collection will appreciate having a piece that looks just as good on the couch as it does in a photo.

Picture unwrapping it on a cold evening, spreading it across your lap while the kettle heats up and the leaves are blowing outside. It is an easy way to share the mood of fall with someone you care about. The available styles are Fleece Throw Blanket, Sherpa Throw Blanket, Fleece Blanket and Sherpa Blanket.
