Pumpkins on Parade


These first 3 pics from Good Housekeeping  are no carve ideas for decorating with pumpkins.  Paint, ribbon, u shaped nails holding up hurricane lamps with votives... anything goes!



These designer nail head embellished white pumpkins and the tutorial are over at Cottage Living   Such a bummer that pumpkins don't last All. Year. Long!






Better Homes and Gardens has a flashy way of spicing up white pumpkins too!


Ahhh!!!! Someone help me!  I can't remember where this pic came from!  If you recognize it, let me know so I can give credit!  Fantastic paint job.

How cute the little ones with the ribbon are. I like them displayed in a basket ~ nice idea.
