Well, it's finally Fall in Oklahoma (55 degrees = Fall here), and I am dying to decorate some pumpkins in an amazingly cool way to adore my front porch. I've had an entire computer file dedicated to pumpkins the past two years...and I've yet to tackle one of these projects myself. Hey...I've been a busy gal.
If you're itching for a great pumpkin (get it..."great pumpkin" ha!) decorating project, here's some inspiration.






P.S. I believe all of the photos are Martha Stewart, but the first two pics were saved in my pre-blogging days...you know, back when I was innocently saving pretty pictures for my own use? So I'm not sure where I found them...so sorry!
I have some of those same images saved. My favorites are the pale green (I think Martha called them "Lumina" pumpkins?) with the cutwork like creamware. Soooooooo elegant. Now, all I need is a set of woodcarving tools, a Lumina pumpkin or two, and 56 hours set aside :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your inspiration, photos. I doubt we'll get around to big time pumpkin projects this year, but you never know!

I love inspiration that makes me want to jump right up and start working on something! Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that first picture...I wish my front door looked like that! I have hundreds and hundreds of inspiration pictures saved, and I'm always so hesitant to post them because I never kept track of where I got them from. I don't want to be posting pictures of someone's kitchen like a creep and they run across it.
ReplyDeleteI love pumpkins and mums (plus, I also love Martha).
ReplyDeleteI have an overflowing file of ideas that I've saved for years, too! Love your pics!
ReplyDeleteMartha has a way with pumpkins doesn't she?

oooh, metallic, I love that idea! Thx!

Oh Wow! Those pictures are awesome. I'm glad you told us they were Martha Stewart, et al, or I would have felt very un-worthy! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Fall Ya'll....from Houston!
That first picture is such an inspiration, I'm in love with the wreath on the door!

ReplyDeleteGlad you had a fun weekend! Good pics.
ReplyDeleteWow. The cutwork on those green pumpkins is... wow. Can you imagine doing that? I'd make such a mess of it and I'd lose my mind.
ReplyDeleteOh, Martha. Such a bar you set.
Those are some beautiful and inspiring photos. I didn't have money to put into oodles of pumpkins this year, but I'll have to store some of these ideas away for future years. Thanks!
