No power for days, a foot of snow - hope all are safe and warm; sorry this is delayed getting out and Happy Halloween everyone!!!!

Pumpkin Decorating:  (by Deborah Way, Photograph by Andrew Greto  )





Use found objects to create a no-mess pumpkin decoration this year.

Materials
  • pumpkins
  • doodads from your junk drawer, such as a pot scrubber, coat hooks, plastic hang tags, a zipper, buttons, rubber band, and measuring spoon
  • tacks, pins, brads, and screws for fastening

Instructions
1.     For a no-mess alternative to carving, create a face on your pumpkin with doodads from your junk drawer, held on with tacks, pins, brads, and screws. For features, we used a pot scrubber, coat hooks, plastic hang tags, a zipper, buttons, a rubber band, a measuring spoon, and more.


Happy Halloween!
Warm regards and love -
