The Painted Pumpkins

A few of you may remember me mentioning our vegetable garden...yes, I am very proud of it, especially being our first one.
We had about 20 pumpkins come up! They are all so cute! I picked a few of them while they were still green because I was afraid they would get mushy on the vine if I didn't. The weather has been pretty unpredictable lately.



What to do with green pumpkins....I know! Paint them!


I chose to go with a more sophisticated look so I painted them black and white. I tied several ribbons and a light blue fiber to the top to bring out the blue pearl brads that I used around the sides.





A few large spiders brought them all together. :)
