A Pretty Pumpkin, A Hint of Fall!




This is one of the gifts I "Prettied up" for my friend Davina's Birthday. Michael's had some gorgeous gold pumpkins, and I thought "Oh! They would be so cute with some ribbon bows and things added!" And then I thought "Hmmm.... I'm giving my friend some other things, but I just love giving something I've "fixed" or made myself, from my heart..." So of course I had to do one for her birthday. She can save it for Fall and use it then.


It was such fun, I may have to do another for someone else! I love doing things to make people smile!


I hope your week is wonderful, and full of joy!

  2. Hey Sis. F. You recognized that pretty orange zebra striped ribbon! I had just a scrap of it left, enough to accent this sweet little pumpkin. Some day you will have a big 'ol house all full of beautiful things!

    And I sure enjoyed making some "pretties" for you...

    luv you!

  9. Love your pumpkin! I'm ready for fall to start... ;o)
    Jenni, thank you for the comments you left me. Somedays are just so hard, this week just knocked me off my feet and I wasn't prepared for it. I pray mostly for others and I forget to pray for me, this past week I prayed for me...our father does listen and he does heal. This week is going to be better than last, the sun will come back out and life will go on just as it has. I can't imagine anyone being mean to you, your one of the sweetest people I know... Thank you so much sweet friend. Hugs and Love, Jennifer

  10. It made my day to see your comments, Jennifer. I am praying for you, girl. Hang in there! You are special, and you MATTER! And God CARES! (And so do I) Big 'ol hugs! I have had some dark days in my life, where the storm was all around, and I couldn't see the end of it..... But, I just looked to Him and He brought me through.... He loves us so much....He will never, ever let you go if you seek Him with all your heart.....He is so close, dear heart! Take courage, He can Calm every storm in your life... I know, because He has done it for me!

    Blessings,
    Jenni
