I have an exciting giveaway for you today. I’m sure you’ve seen these gorgeous velvet pumpkins as you’ve been out and about in blogland. I sure have.
Chris Ann and Kristin are two friends who now live several states apart. They started LoveFeast Table as a way to “curate beauty for all those who would gather around this table.” Their site is chock full of interesting and helpful tips and their shop The LoveFeast Shop carries hand-crafted and artistic items, including these velvet pumpkins. They also give back to those in need with The Kitchen Project that is helping build a Children’s Home and Community Center in Mexico, and the Traveling Cookbook, a project to raise awareness and funds for a Mobile Pack Unit for Feed My Starving Children. The unit will provide “100,000 meals for starving children in the highest needs area of the world.” You can read all about Chris Ann and Kristin on their site.
If you visit the site, you can watch a short video in which Chris Ann and Kristin talk about their friendship and how that friendship spawned the idea for LoveFeast Table. Their plates are full – they each have children and busy lives – but they’ve created something quite wonderful together.
I love seeing women band together in a creative endeavor and one that also helps those in need. Since Brenda and I are two friends who met through blogging, we thought it would be a perfect idea for each of us to host a giveaway for these pumpkins on the same day. So make sure you head on over to Cozy Little House for another chance to enter.
Trio Set: Set of 3 – 6 inch, 5 inch and 4 inch. All of LoveFeast’s Velvet Pumpkins, Acorns and Mushrooms are meticulously hand-stitched and handcrafted out of natural organic stems and luxurious velvet fabrics. LoveFeast Shop exclusively carries the velvet colors of Sage and Mushroom.
The winner of this giveaway will be able to choose one of the Trio Sets from the web site. There are even more possibilities than the four trios I chose to show you today! (You know, of course, what trio I would choose for myself. Hint: Turquoise.)
To be entered: Just leave a comment on this post telling me where in your home you might display these pumpkins. The winner will be chosen by the Random Number Generator on Saturday night and announced on Sunday.
Happy Thursday.
i have loved these velvet pumpkins since i first saw them last year–i would put them in a basket and use them on my table or beside the hearth in my den thanks
I like the fall jewels set. I would put them in a display on my dining room table because that’s the first thing you see when you walk in my house.
I would put them on my washstand at the top of my entrance stairs. I like the colors of The Love Feast Trio.
I have an antique treadwheel sewing machine in my entry way. I think the pumpkins would be VERY happy on display with my Fall quilt. Thanks for the chance. XXX
I would love to have these beautiful pumpkins to display on my mantel. I would keep them up all fall and winter. Many thanks for the chance to win!
I would display these on the table in my sunroom. I’d probably add a fall garland twined among them. They are beautiful!

I’ve admired these for quite a while. Just lovely. And the turquoise trio would add a velvety soft touch to my ken (kitchen/den) shelves, which for too long have been empty and longing for something pretty.
Thanks, Claudia!
Dawn
Those are just so beautiful and warm. They would go in my living room on my sofa table so everyone could see them as they came in!
The pumpkins are so beautiful. I would display them on my fireplace mantle in my den. Thank you for the giveaway.
Michle
These are beautiful. I can just picture them in a great tablescape atop our entertainment center.
I just finished reading Brenda’s post about this amazing friendship. The pumpkins are gorgeous and I would put them on my dining room table in a vignette! I ‘knew’ the turquoise one’s were your pick!! Hugs, Linda
I was just swooning over some velvet pumpkins at HL yesterday and no way can I afford them. I would put the tourguoise ones on my grandmother’s sewing machine in my living room windows, so that they could be admired by anyone coming into my living room. Thank you for the great giveaway!
I would put them in an old wooden bowl on my dining room table. They are so elegant!
My pumpkins would be placed on my hearth with sprigs of fresh acorns and fall leaves.
Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
They are beautiful! I would put them on our old oak buffet in the living room. L O V E the set w/ the pink and the green. Also love your blog!!
I have always loved these velvet pumpkins. I think I would put them on a large white ironstone platter and display them on my dining room table. Or maybe, in an antique silver bowl on my coffee table.
The pumpkins are beautiful. I love the rich colors. I would place them on one of my cakestands on my dining table.
Those are gorgeous, and their shop is so pretty. I’d love to have a trio of those to display for my Thanksgiving dinner for the whole family. I usually have anywhere from 15 to 30 people show up, and those would just stand out so prettily. Thank you for the opportunity.
Hugs,
Meri
I would put some of these in my Living Room for display..they are so pretty, this is my favorite time of year…just love them…thank you …………….
I would display these beauties right on the dining room table so everyone would see them first! They are lovely. Thanks for the giveaway, Jean
I have a counter between my kitchen and dining room that I display seasonal beauties on. It’s there I would place these wonderful pumpkins.
I just love these Claudia! I have an old tool trunk in my kitchen sitting on top of a green blanket trunk and they would look perfect there.
Thanks
Sue
I would display them on my antique pine bureau that’s in my house just as you enter. These are really beautiful.
I would put these on my coffee table or else on my entryway table. They are really lovely!
I can just imagine these pumpkins on my buffet in our dining area…it’s a dining set that came from my late MIL’s estate…it’s very special to me! Thanks for the opportunity Claudia! ;)
I would display them on top of my antique china hutch. They’re gorgeous!
Just gorgeous! I really love the Sensational Trio or the Love Feast! I would put then on my peninsula counter which is the first thing you see when you walk into my home!! Thanks for the entry! I’m now following you!! =) Deanna
They are beautiful aren’t they. I have a great mantle over our gas fireplace that these would look fabulous under. Velvet is so comforting – the perfect fabric for fall.
Mmmm, think I might choose the turquoise as well. They would definitely be displayed on the kitchen island here at the cottage, just because that’s where I live, in the kitchen!
We bought a new side board about a month ago. So I am having a lot of ideas on how I want to decorate for the holidays. These pumkins ould look great.
Theese pumpkins are so beautiful, dear Claudia, and the story behind them alsovery lovely.
Wonderful friendships are built all over, and those two ladies, made something fantastic with
theirs friendship.
Hugs from Dorthe
I could see a trio of these in a straw filled basket in my entryway . Great giveaway !
Claudia,
I would display these beautiful pumpkins in a rustic pottery bowl that sits on an antique trunk in my living room. The set would be a welcome fall addition to my decorating.
Susan
I too would choose the turquoise as well. Love them and they would look perfect on my dining room table! Thank you for the give away. janleeatk@gmail.com
I’d put the turquoise set in the middle of my dining room table. They would pick up the turquoise from my accent wall and gleam on the wood table.
I would put them in a pedestal bowl I have in the family room. chedeb5353@hotmail.com
Turquoise! On my old walnut baby grand with a burlap runner…wall color Sweet Georgia Brown with splashes of white and turquoise here and there.
The Love Feast Trio would look lovely anywhere during the fall season…but my location would be on the dining room table in wire basket filled with the pumpkins and a mix of fall leaves and twigs.
Be well.
I like the idea of putting them on a lovely cake stand and having them in the middle of my dining room table. These are so cozy looking, I could also put them on the living room table between my two chairs… What a fun giveaway! Thanks!
I love the Lovefeast story and I love their velvet pumpkins. Thanks for spreading the word and for giving us a chance to win a set of pumpkins.
Betty
I would display these beauties on a table in my living room so each time someone entered or left me home they would be seen and admired. On Thanksgiving they would be our dining table centerpiece and at Christmas they would have a place of honor and would dictate the color theme for this year’s tree.
These are so lovely.
What a wonderful endeavor too.
Love the entire shop!
The Love Feast Trio would be so pretty on my mantle.
Thanks for sharing their story with us Claudia.
The Fall Jewels Set would look great on our little kitchen table.
I would put them in my living room by my fireplace.
I would love to see the Turquoise Pumpkin set in my living room that features a white sideboard, 2 rural sea-side watercolors on the wall, a sandy beige couch, 2 glass bamboo end tables, various shells for decor and light aqua painted walls with white trim and a pine TV cabinet. Feels like the beach — even when there’s snow outside! The Turquoise Pumpkin set would fit right in!
Oh boy, aren’t those beautiful. What a generous give-a-way.
I have my grandmother’s pedal sewing machine and I use an antique dough bowl on top of it. It’s my seasonal bowl that I change out every chance I get. I’d love to see the pumpkins in that bowl.
:-) Diane ~ The Library Lady
Those pumpkins are gorgeous! I would have to put them in my kitchen on my island so I could see them continually! Thanks so much for the give a way – so very nice of you!
What a beautiful and generous give away !!!!!!!
I would love to place the turquoise pumpkins in my silver bowl that sits on the trunk (a.k.a coffeetable)in the living room.
Thank you for allowing me enter your give away.
Vanessa
The first grouping would be my favorites and would look wonderful by my fireplace…I like things to be their natural colors..usually..Picky, picky….Oh well..Love the velvet..
I would send them to darling daughter so she might have a touch of fall in her teensy NYC apt. <3
good luck everyone
What beautiful pumpkins and talented ladies! If I should be the lucky winner they would go right on my diningroom table. Having a small farm cottage the pumpkin would be perfect!
What a dynamic duo the two are! Gorgeous, gorgeous gourds! I’m with you Claudia… it would have to be the turquoise trio and they would nestle up together on the dining room table. :)
Those pumpkins are simply darling, I would put them on top of my mantle with the other ones that I have been making out of canvas.
What a great idea those two woman have.
Jen @ Muddy Boot Dreams
The possibilities are numerous. I first thought on my antique wooden tray on the coffee table in the living room – or on the mantle with my oil lamp collection. But I think best on a cake stand on my buffet because I’d see them every time I came in the door. The colors are Georgous .
I just did up a fall display. I have a scarecrow, and a haystack, along with some cornhusks. The scarecrow sits on a rocking bench made out of a small birch branch. These are all small items. I would intermingle the pumpkins in sort of a field scene for a little bit more color.
I have a really deep window in the back of the 5th wheel that would be perfect for these! Pick me! :)
I love these cute little pumpkins. In the living room :)
Thanks for hosting a great giveaway!
Liz
Dear Claudia,
I would display the Love Feast Trio on my tea cart that my dear late Mama gifted to me many years ago.
Thanks for the chance and happy fall to y’all!
Phyllis
I would display these darling pumpkins in my office at work. I think my patients would enjoy seeing them, and the turquoise will be perfect!
These trios are beautiful. I would display a set on the table behind my sofa so we could enjoy them from many angles.
These would look great ANYWHERE in my house.
I think I would put them on a cake stand on my breakfast table.
Thanks for the opportunity to win them!
Hi Claudia – I would definitely put these in my dining room. Probably a vignette on the dining room table. They would look stunning. Thanks for the giveaway. J
Hi Claudia,
Such a fun and generous gift. The pumpkins are beautiful. If I was the lucky one , I would have them on my dinning room table for everyone to enjoy.
Have a sweet day, Elizabeth
I think I would place them on my mantle on top of some books I have there. That way I could see them as soon as I walked in the door from work.
They would look wonderful in my living room. I love these!
Beautiful pumpkins! I would put them in my family room near the fireplace. So cozy!
Xo,
Charlotte
I absolutely know where I would display them – sideboard in dining room. Should I win, the color choice would be hard-they are all fabulous! Lovely giveaway – thank you for the opportunity to participate!
I’ve been admiring these velvet pumpkins since last year and would love to win a set! I”d choose the Fall Harvest set to place on top of my old upright piano. Wonderful story to go with your giveaway! Thanks for hosting!
I would love to have this set of velvet pumpkins to sit in my living room on my coffee table. They are beautiful!
Judy
Hi Claudia, Oh those pumpkins are the sweetest! I am sorry that I have not visited lately, it has been a rough summer for me, taking care of my parents. I would put them on a little stool that my uncle made for me, he made it out of vintage boards, they would look so cute. Thanks for the opportunity to win and have a wonderful weekend and enjoy your fall. Hugs, Terri
I really adore those velvety pumpkin sets! I would set them out so children who trick-or-treat can see them-on my hand painted hallway table.
I LOVE the fall it’s my favorite season and pumpkins are my favorite also. I have ornamental pumpkins out in my living room all year long. I would display them on the opening in between my livingroim and kitchen, so I could admire them all day long. Who ever made the first velvet pumpkins was a creative genius, what a great idea! Thanks to you and to Brenda (who sent me) for participating in this wonderful giveaway. ;-> Toni Anne
I’d put them on a low table in the sunroom where my grandchildren could feel their softness.
Hi, Claudia, These gorgeous pumpkins would look great on my antique sailor’s trunk in my living room!
Thanks for the opportunity with this giveaway!
I would put the pumpkins on a beautiful antique reproduction hall tree, that my husband made.
They would greet everyone who entered the front door.

Thank you so much for hosting this giveaway, Claudia! The pumpkins are just beautiful. And even more meaningful is knowing that Chris Ann and Kristin use their talents to accomplish such good in the world. (Especially for children!) Were I to win any one of those lovely trios, I would probably split them up and use them in different places around my home: one in the parlor (next to my little needlepoint “Autumn” pillow that I have out); one in the dining room, on the buffet, and another in my upstairs den on an old trunk I use as a coffee table. That way I’d be able to spread their beauty around and enjoy them wherever I was!
I was just looking at the turquoise ones at Lovefeast the other day. I would love these on my mantle if I won.
These are just gorgeous. I spend most of my time here in the lanai, so I would put them in a basket with some shells…there’s just the right amount of room! Thanks and Happy Fall!
I adore LoveFeastTable’s beautiful pumpkins and think they would be a beautiful accent on my dining room table. Thank you so much for the chance at winning a set! Amy M.
Oh my, I LOVE these pumpkins — they are all gorgeous! I think they would be perfect on my buffet in the living room!! Thanks for a wonderful opportunity!
I heard about this giveaway at Brenda’s blog. Thank you for the chance to win these pretty pumpkins! I would place mine in a wooden dough bowl on my coffee table!
These would look so cute in the basket I have on my front porch, sitting on an old ’50s green chair :-). Pick me please!
The fall jewels set would look wonderful in my library/reading room. Now that the days are getting shorter, it’s an especially cozy place to spend time. Thank you.
I would display these in my dining room along with my growing collection of turkeys. :)
These velvet pumpkins are so gorgeous. If I were the lucky winner, I would love to display these on my dining room table and would leave them out through the fall season.
I love these pumpkins. I think they would be pretty displayed on my living room mantle. Thanks.
These little velvet pumpkins are so pretty. I would love to display it in my living room on an antique buffet or in my dining room on an oak antique table.
Oh Claudia, those pumpkins are the cutest! I have the perfect spot on my fireplace mantel. Love your blog!
Hope it’s not too late to enter! The pumpkins would look lovely on my dining room table. Thanks for the opportunity.
