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.
