I found this pumpkin at Savers the other day. I was a little wobbly, but I figured I could fix that. Check out the makeover this plan pumpkin got.
Go see what your thrift store has. It’s like a treasure hunt!
I added a little paint and glitter to my 7 dollar, 2 foot tall pumpkin. It looked better already.
I had been want to make something like this, that I saw over at TheCornerHouseBlog.com
Very fun idea. I love this. I wanted to add a countdown and I loved the “It’s all about the CANDY!” I couldn’t fit it all on my pumpkin. So, I just went with the “candy phrase.”
Thanks for the inspiration Corner House Blog!
I cut some vinyl on my Cricut and this is what I made 🙂
I thought about winding ribbon through all those holes. I decided my kids would love to see it lit-up at night and went with some Christmas lights instead. I am pretty sure that is why they are there anyway. 🙂
TAA DAA!
I love Halloween!

Dang, one more store we don’t have here in boring old California 🙂 Seriously though, super cute! And the lights were definitely the way to go!
Cute! LOVE the lights around it – what a good idea for dressing it up.
I’d love for you to link up to my pumpkin party:
