Are you all ready for some awesome pumpkin inspiration? Myself, along with 10 other talented bloggers joined together for another monthly challenge, with this month's theme being craft pumpkins. I was all over this idea since I try to make holiday decor that can last from year to year. Who want's to spend a ton of money on real pumpkins when you can have a blast decorating faux ones? I'm a little
Alright, that's enough about my thrifty life. Let's talk about the 11 awesome pumpkins created using inexpensive craft pumpkins.
Pretty creative, huh?
We all had to purchase the same craft pumpkin from Michael's, but could purchase any size and color. I chose the 9' white pumpkin for my project. I also picked up 2 packs of triangle iron on nailheads that I found in the clearance aisle for $0.30 a piece. Total score.
I peeled off the iron on nail heads from the black fabric they were attached to then hot glued each one onto a pumpkin. I learned real quick that I needed to use tweezers to avoid burning or glueing my fingers togethers.
This fun little pumpkin blends in so well with my decor and I just love how it turned out.
