Pumpkin decoupage! Right up my alley. πŸ™‚ Especially the leaves I absolutely love finding and saving different types of leaves. (Better Homes and Garden)

Simple ribbon encircling these small pumpkins gives the place a charming and festive look!

This is genius different colored pastas! Cute cute.

Decorate your pumpkins with candy! Martha Stewart says to stick the candies on with ball pins, but as the mom of a toddler that kind of scares me. lol You could also glue the candies.

Check out this Edgar Allen Poe decoupaged pumpkin featured on the Mrs. B Blog!
(From last year but oh so awesome)

Guess how the dots were put on the dotted pumpkin on the right? With a black sharpie! So smart. πŸ™‚ And the other two pumpkins with the intricate designs? Rub-on transfers found in the scrapbook section. Brilliant! πŸ™‚
(From The Pleasures of Homemaking Blog)

Im totally in love with this glittered pumpkin idea from Martha Stewart!

Can you tell I like decoupage? πŸ™‚ Learn how to decoupage ribbon onto a pumpkin at the Ribbonwood Cottage blog!

Not really carving but sorta. πŸ˜‰
I love this polka dot look by Better Homes and Gardens! Just use an apple-corer on different gourds and pumpkins and change them around! Easy and fun. πŸ™‚
