Fall Flashback * Decoupaged Pumpkins

Since fall has pretty much arrived here in the mid-state of Tennessee, with the cool air breezes and the leaves starting to change, thought I'd share one of my favorite posts from fall last year.

I love decorating for fall. It's only second to Christmas as my favorite time of year. Last year, I took part in a Pinterest inspired crop and created some decoupaged pumpkins that I still just love looking at.

Here was my inspiration....decoupaged pumpkins.

And here are my finished decoupaged pumpkins. I really wish I had taken pics along the way but honestly, it's a very easy process.  And the tutorial at Tatertots and Jello is so well done, why reinvent the wheel, right!

I just made it work for me. I purchased the inexpensive pumpkins you can find at Michaels and used those. I didn't remove the stem as her tutorial showed. I just left it on and decoupaged up to the stem. Then I added some extra stuff around the stem for more fluff.  This was just really things I already had on hand.

 I added some gold and brown tulle from my gift wrapping stash, some eucalyptus leaves that I had on hand, some sticks and some velvet leaves I found on clearance at Michael's for just a few cents.

 I love my leopard print pumpkins!  

If you like today's post, be sure to check back tomorrow. I'll share another Pinterest inspired fall project that was a lot of fun!

Thanks for stopping by!
