craft room pumpkin


Have you seen the cute decoupaged pumpkin on the cover of Country Living magazine?  I loved it but decided to make one for the craft room.  I found one of my old faded funkins in the garage.  Dug out some cute October Afternoon scraps.  Cut them up and I was ready to go.  I don't personally have a craft room but I do have an office (tiny mudroom desk/shelf).  



Once you have a cute assortment of scraps, start mod podging them on your pumpkin.  I lucked out and talked my youngest into helping.  You have to use your fingers to smooth the scraps down over the pumpkin ridges.  (messy)



You will need a surprising number of little squares and rectangles... i decided to throw in turquoise because I'm into turquoise and orange.


Here she is... cute, right?  I put a ribbon on top... I'm seeing that everywhere too.


Come back tomorrow... I'm going to try a little decoupage magic with newspaper and a mini pumpkin.  xoxo  Jenni
