You knew this moment was coming. You’ve fallen in love with Luxe Pumpkins, and just as you’re about to check out, a voice from across the room asks the inevitable...
“We’re spending HOW much on pumpkins?”
Take a deep breath. And begin making your case.
1. These Aren’t Grocery Store Pumpkins
Luxe Pumpkins are the special finds. They’re beautifully perfect, or quirky and perfectly imperfect. They’re special pumpkins with unique curves, color, and character. We only use orange pumpkins as back up dancers for our true stars to lean on. And if we do feature an orange pump, it’s no ordinary jack o’lantern. It’s a Gladiator with a two-inch-thick, fourteen inches long crazy stem like a handle. These are the pumpkins that make you stop and stare because they feel like art. And they are.
2. You Can’t Buy Them Locally
That’s part of the charm. You won’t find Luxe Pumpkins piled in a bin with those beat up pumpkins outside the grocery store. They’re boutique, exclusive. Sure, you could try to hunt down our favorite farmers, but that means hours of driving, hauling, and hoping. Or… you could simply click Add to Cart. When friends ask where you found them, you’ll get to say, “They’re Luxe. Aren’t they special?” (Because your friends will have nice pumpkin displays but they're just plain old orange!)
3. The DIY Reality Check
If your partner’s still not convinced, walk them through the “budget-friendly” alternative.
They’ll need to take their SUV and track down 40+ pumpkins. “Get the good ones, not the beat up ones in the bins at Whole Foods.” Make it even harder by saying, “Get 10 medium white, 8 small orange…” Give him your list. Now load them up and bring them home. Now unload them, and help you arrange them because some are really heavy. (That’s totally true!) That’s a full afternoon gone. (During college football season. Ha!)
Then comes critter control. Watch for those critters so they don’t decimate the display.
And when Halloween is over? Back into the SUV they go. Month old pumpkins making the drive of shame to the local Pumpkin Smash. Unload them again and throw them in the dumpster. All 40 of them. No, you can’t just toss them in your garbage bin. (Methane gas. It’s a thing. Look it up.)
Does DIY still sound like a better deal?
4. The Luxe Logic
With Luxe Pumpkins, you skip the mess, skip the critters, and skip the compost run. You get beauty that is art. Sophisticated, elegant, and uniquely you.
It’s fall. Elevated.
Because sometimes, the smart choice is the Luxe one.
