Clean the truck bed lightly, keeping its rustic look intact for character.

Arrange crates or boxes inside to create different heights and layers for your display.

Place pumpkins and gourds across the crates, mixing shapes and sizes for a natural effect.

Add potted mums between the pumpkins to bring in bursts of color and fullness.

Drape a warm-colored blanket over the tailgate, letting it hang slightly for a welcoming touch.
