Corn and Pumpkin
Set corn at an angle across the basket. Add large pumpkin on one side, and mini-pumpkins on the other side.

Fall leaves
Add some fall leaves here and there, (silk, real, or preserved) to act as a filler and add texture and color. Also add a handful of pinecones on one side.

This twig birdnest is set on the top as a focal point.
Tip: Place some fall leaves around the nest for color and texture.
