Bling a Pumpkin!

Yay!  It’s the first Friday of September, and I’m showing you my first pumpkin craft of the year.  Pumpkin crafts, recipes, and decorating threaten to take over this blog in the autumn…I can’t resist. So indulge me, and maybe you’ll even want to make this for your own home.

Jeweled-Pumpkin--ChaosServe

This craft was so easy, it almost felt like cheating to say I had crafted. So I had a pumpkin latte to fill up a little more time, while I admired my handiwork.  This took literally less than five minutes to make.

All you need is a faux white pumpkin and some black jewel flourish stickers. Then guess what you do?  That’s correct…stick the flourishes on, and add the pumpkin to your décor.

Isn’t it elegantly rustic?

    Haha! That’s great! The whole pumpkin theme……….latte and all. Are those black jewel sticker flourishes from Stampin’ Up?

      Thanks…I like to be thematic, you know! No, they aren’t Stampin’ Up!…they had them a year or two ago, but not this year. These were from Michael’s.
