Or at the very least, sparkly pumpkins. I have been looking for a little fall color for the living room, but I didn’t want to add splashes of orange, or anything too folk-ish. It’s a pretty traditional room. And I never really put up anything sparkly, other than the occasional chandelier. But Halloween is coming, and I wanted something to indicate the season as the room is the first thing you see entering our house. So I got a little creative at the craft store, and I made these last night. They aren’t quite done – I need a few more things to finish off the backs, and I lost a few rhinestones I will replace, but I think I like them. Different than anything I had seen around the stores at least. What do you think – hit or miss?
Best,
Stephanie

Stephanie, these are GORGEOUS! So chic in black and white - i guess this will be the new fashion!
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me!!!? Wow!:)
ReplyDeleteI am not big on real pumpkins, but I would love having one of these. Great job.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the colors of fall. Reds, oranges... all beautiful. Yet, your pumpkins are so pretty and refreshing.
ReplyDeleteFabulous darling! Last year I did a pumpkin decorating playdate with my daughter and her friends. We used jewels to decorate mini-pumpkins...they had so much fun and there wasn't any mess!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, these are absolutely gorgeous! They are both fun and sophisticated at the same time.

ReplyDeleteWow these are wonderful!! I'd really like a full description of how you designed and made them. Are they real pumpkins or fakes? What did you paint them with? How are the rhinestones held on?

I popped over from One funky woman and took a look around. Those pumpkins are seriously gorgeous. I love that they are not traditional and the design is beautiful.
