We would love to see one of these as a centerpiece at Thanksgiving - or anytime this fall, really. After all, who says pumpkins are just for Halloween?

I love the first one. The second one nice too, but am I the only one that's tired of the phrase "faux bois"? Even as a French speaker, it sounds pretentious to me.

I'm extremely tired of hearing 'faux bois' mispronounced 'fox boys'. The first time I heard a shopkeeper (!!!) say it, I didn't know what the hell she was talking about! Everyone has the internet, it's not that hard to look it up.

The top one makes my skin crawl, looks like scarred skin. I've been watching too many horror movies.
