Wedding Wednesday
DIY Pumpkin Craft
Wedding Wednesday ~ October 26, 2011
This is
the FASTEST wedding wednesday I’ve ever posted in my LIFE. I am literally in the middle of blow drying my hair and finishing a presentation! I’m taking 4 of our girls to visit CNU and then I have the opportunity to speak and answer questions for CNU’s digital photography class! I’m excited!!!… But running out of time! And if you’re a fall bride that is excited and running out of time… this pumpkin monogrom DIY project is a GREAT way to decorate an entry way, the top of the bar, centerpieces, etc! It’s easy, crafty, and CHEAP. It costs me $4 for the pumpkin and $1.25 for a set of silver thumbtacks! Simply draw your

monogram, initial, wedding date, etc. onto the pumpkin and then stick the thumbtacks over the outline! DONE! When I was younger I used to DREAM of the day when I could have a house of my own and DECORATE the front porch during the fall!!! I used to judge other houses with a tiny single pumpkin or one little fall flag… welp, now that I’m in the real world, I realize that not everyone has time to be Martha Stewart… including myself!! I need crafts that take 5 minutes MAX!! So please don’t look too closely at my DEAD mums and enjoy this little DIY fall inspiration!!!

Lydia: ( November 7, 2011 8:31 pm ) Love it! And I so know what you mean. Haven't even gotten out my official fall decorations this year. :-S
Abby Grace: ( October 26, 2011 6:26 pm ) If I had a porch, it's be decked out in thumbtacked pumpkins. But we live on the 4th floor of an apartment building, so no one really sees out balcony. I always buy pumpkins for their guts! I bake the seeds with butter and Lowry's season salt- sooooo delicious! Btdubs, this post is pretty good for only having spent 5 minutes on it!
Jodi: ( October 26, 2011 5:10 pm ) You're so cute...what a FABULOUS idea to do with pumpkins...might need to do that this year considering I have no time to carve them...thanks for sharing

sherri: ( October 26, 2011 3:20 pm ) I don't really like carving pumpkins so this idea is perfect! I love it!
Emy: ( October 26, 2011 3:07 pm ) Seriously?! KK, you always make everything look so classy. I would never think of this... if I decided to do something other then carving, I'd probably just write on it with a sharpie. hahah you're great!
Lauryn: ( October 26, 2011 12:34 pm ) Looks great Katelyn! And don't feel too bad, this is the first year we've been able to decorate our front porch. Makes me appreciate it more though!!
