Pumpkin time: Before and After








Yay! I actually got some crafting done today..... and I had fun turning this plain gold pumpkin from Michael's into a colorful Fall accent. The orange flower and the Plaid and brown sparkle ribbon all came from Michael's, too. The gold -edged green ribbon is some that I have had since last Fall, and I think it may have come from Hobby - Lobby. I wired the bow together, and tied and glued it in place, glued on the orange flower and some leaves and berries, and "bibbidy - bobbidy - boo!" A fancy pumpkin...... or, as some say here in Texas: a "Punkin".......

Hooray for Fall! September is here at last...........

    Awww..... you are such an encouragement, Jennifer.... I have thought about Etsy... don't know if I'm brave enough yet to try.....

    I am supposed to do a craft show in November. So I am crafting some things.... I think it'll be fun. I'm supposed to share a booth with a very dear friend and her daughter. I am hoping to sell some things, that would make it even more fun!!!! ;0)
    Girl, sometimes it's nice just to be lazy and enjoy, huh? Glad you got to do that, dear friend!

    Take care, and here's a big hug from me!
