So Thankful for These Pumpkins!

I used eight small foam dollar store pumpkins and some rub-ons to make today's project.

Simple, simple, simple, my friends!

I am so thankful for fun and easy projects:)

Aren't you?!?

 

All I did was add a rub-on letter to each pumpkin spelling out the word thankful.

I think they'd be cute in a Thanksgiving centerpiece.

Thanks for stopping by and God bless.

For with God nothing will be impossible.

Pumpkin Centerpiece

This centerpiece has a very fall-ish feel, so it would work for either Halloween or Thanksgiving.

I started with an artificial pumpkin, a candle and two fall floral sprigs.

I cut a circle around the stem using a sharp steak knife.

It was much easier than I thought it would be!

I stuck the fall sprigs in the hole and wedged the candle into the hole.

It's tight enough that the candle holds the foliage tight without having to use glue.

Then I arranged the leaves to space them out and make the candle noticeable.

Ta-da!

Thanks for stopping by and God bless.

Halloween Projects

Want to see some Halloween projects?
Just follow the links to see more details.

  

This project is cute and super easy. 

They're doily pumpkins.

They are simply decorative pumpkins with vintage doilies adhered to them.

I made this Halloween wreath with supplies from the dollar store.

You can go here to see this pumpkin covered with sheet music 

and another one decoupaged with a map.

This Halloween garland is made from dollar store items, too.

For this paper covered pumpkin, 

I cut up Halloween patterned papers and adhered them to the pumpkin with Mod Podge. 

As typical for me, all these projects are quick, easy, and cheap to make.:)

Thanks for stopping by and God bless.

I will bless the Lord at all times; 

His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Darling Doily Covered Pumpkins

Would you like to see something cute?

How about this doily covered pumpkin. . .

or this doily covered gourd.

They're so easy to make.

All you need is a plastic pumpkin or gourd of some type

a doily

Mod Podge

foam brush

Remove the stem. My gourds had stems that were able to be removed, if yours won't come off,

trim a hole in the center of the doily large enough to go over the stem.

Then, using your foam brush, adhere Mod Podge on the pumpkin where the doily will cover.

Press the doily onto the glue making sure all the edges are tight against the gourd.

Allow to dry.

That's it! Too easy and too cute!

I'm going to keep mine out with my Thanksgiving decor.

Happy Halloween! I hope you all have a lovely weekend!

Thanks so much for stopping by and God bless.
