What do you put in a cornucopia?

Answer 1

Fruits, grains, vegetables, and flowers of the harvest season. When in doubt, I've prepared a list of things to stuff into your horn 'o plenty:

-Greyish moss

-Miniature pumpkins

-Small gourds

-Dried wheat shafts

-Dried straw flowers

-Artificial berries and grapes (real ones will spoil too quickly)

-Various coloured leaves, real or fake (just make sure they're dry)

-Walnuts

-Pecans

Often called the "Horn of Plenty"

Mini pumpkins, dried pepper strings, gourds, small apples, autumn leaves.
Choose fruits etc. with waxy surfaces to make them last longer.
Sprinkle nuts and cranberries for effect.

Answer 3

Conucopias are filled with the symbols of the season. In the fall of the year they can have things like fruit ( apples & grapes) and nuts, gourds along with wheat even fall flowers.
