Monya founded Plush Pumpkin in 2002. Her goal was to create a truly unique table centerpiece that would “wow” her quests and provide a feast for the eyes. Each Plush Pumpkin is crafted from lush velvet, rich fabrics, and of course Monya’s signature, all natural and unique pumpkin stems. Each Plush Pumpkin has a real pumpkin, gourd or squash stem attached and each creation is made by hand in Minnesota, and embossed with the PP logo on the bottom. The Plush Pumpkin line also includes acorns, mushrooms and hearts. To learn more, about the pink breast cancer awareness Plush Pumpkin, go to: www.plushpumpkin.com
