Styling an Antique Wooden Dough Bowl For Fall

My antique wooden dough bowl means so much to me ....it belonged to my Mother.       Very few pieces of my furniture can accommodate such a large bowl.    My formal dining room table is big enough for it and there is just enough space in the pass thru between the kitchen and the family dining room for it to fit. 

It's so big that it can be quite a challenge to style it.
   I've filled it with pumpkins .....made a fairy garden in it....filled it with vintage Christmas ornaments..... and today I filled it with fall flowers     Any ideas.....it's over 3 feet long..... 

It was so quick and easy to fill it with fall flowers.    I create lots of floral designs so I have a pretty big stash of flowers on hand that I have collected for years.

Some of my favorite flowers have come from yard sales and auctions......great quality and budget friendly too

 

This how the dough bowl looks on the pass thru from in the kitchen 

I didn't use styrofoam or anything to secure the flowers in the dough bowl.....just piled them in there kind of willy nilly.   

I let a Flower Market sign audition for the space in front of the dough bowl.....I haven't decided if I like it there or not

I almost think the kitchen side of the bowl has prettier flowers on it than the dining room side...

What do you think  ?

Thank you so much for stopping by today.....I appreciate each and every one of your visits....hugs
