{Fun and Easy} Pumpkins Four Ways

Woot woot! In case you haven’t heard, I am putting away my white shoes and declaring today the first day of fall at my house! Yes, it’s nearly 90 degrees so you summer lovers can carry on, but I am ready for fall! (If only my lawn knew and would stop growing!)  Sooo…in honor of my favorite season, I have pulled together my four favorite ways to do pumpkins so you can get a little head start!

First…and my all-time favorites...are my Country Living inspired découpage pumpkins! As soon as I saw these babies on the cover of their magazine two years ago, I knew that would be my first fall project. You can see a detailed tutorial so that you can make your own by clicking here.

If you have an old sweater (or can find one at the thrift store), a dollar store faux pumpkin and some twine, then you have what you need to make my super-easy sweater pumpkins! You can get all the details here.

This time of year the dollar aisle at Target starts to fill up with inexpensive fall goodies. That’s where I found most of what I needed to make these fun Halloween sock pumpkins! The little grandies love these…and they are small and soft enough that they can carry them around. You can get the instructions here.

And finally, I made these pumpkins with my thirteen-year-old grandson in mind…my duct tape pumpkins! Once again, faux pumpkins from the dollar store are the base for these fun and inexpensive pumpkins. You will find a detailed tutorial for making them here.
And there you have my favorites from last year! I have already been hitting Goodwill and the craft stores (armed with coupons, of course) in preparation for this year’s pumpkins. I hope you will stay tuned to see what I have cooking for you this fall!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed having a little peek at my pumpkins! Please visit these wonderful bloggers and their beautiful blogs to see what they are up to and to find a list of this week’s participants!
