::Pumpkin chic::

Oct10

I have seen so many cute ideas decorating with pumpkins this year..polka dots, monograms, and of course lots of white “ghost” pumpkins everywhere, they are getting so much easier to find (and dare I say cheaper..59 cents a lb? what do you pay?)… I also love the heirloom varieties with different colors, warts and bumps..the crazier the better! (these really freak out some people apparently)

Click here for instructions on decoupaging the cute polka dots (i actually prefer using choc brown to the black so they can be used through Thanksgiving) but we just painted ours on with a brush..not perfect but cute and EASY! My next project is to decoupage some with old book pages!

Share and Enjoy:

How fun! And I hear you, it’s hard to swallow when “natural” things are so ridiculously high priced!

Ok… so I think we share a brain… I DID POLKA DOT PUMPKINS this year too!!! But your idea with stacking them takes the cake. Jen Allwood
