Deco Mesh Pumpkin for fall or halloween


This cut pumpkin can hang on your wall from September to November.  If you want to make it look more like a Jack o lantern then add a temporary face and legs or hat.  Then remove for Thanksgiving.

Fall lantern swag


Fall is coming and to get ready I changed my Patriotic lantern to a Fall lantern.  I popped over to Hobby Lobby for supplies and came up with this Fall lantern.

I am not sure if I am done with the swag.  I might add more stuff to it.  It is also not hanging on the lantern the way I would like so I need to adjust it. But for now it will work.

Rustic Decorative Pumpkin Stand


Have you ever been to a Home Depot Weekly Workshop?  I went tonight.  I made this Rustic Decorative Pumpkin Stand.  It was really cool.  I was lucky enough to make my own.  Usually they show you how to make one and you then go home and make your own.  I will paint this bad boy and then put it on the front porch next my my door with mums in it.  


I took my husband to the class.  However He didn't stick around because the teacher lacked in basic safety.  She made it through the class but she didn't have a good working knowlege of the power equipment.  We also looked at the wrong cuting direction for the box and so I had to cut my pumpkin shorted about 2 1/2 inches.  The lady in this picture is not the teacher she is a fellow student. The end results came out ok and I am happy with my project.

If you ever have a chance to go one of the workshops take the opportunity.
