Encyclopedia paper pumpkin---I think you all knew this was coming!

Well I just don't think it would be right if I didn't make so kind of very "Jaime" fall decor!

Anddd I can't think of anything that is more "me" than a dollar store pumpkin mod podged with my favorite encyclopedia paper...

I added some gold paint to the stem

to kind of define the grooves of the pumpkin.

inexpensive sweet and simple?! yes please!

I am going to be linking up to a few of these wonderful parties!

annddd speaking of parties are you ready to party tonight?! Crafty Scrappy Happy. Me. Thursday will be opening tonight!

I am LOVD said...: Awesome!!! You must have some great Dollar Stores. I was at Hobby Lobby yesterday (I know, not a dollar store) and is it just me or is everything outrageously expensive all of a sudden. Even at 40% I couldn't justify what they were charging for some simple things like leaf garland and ceramic pumpkins from China!??!!?; September 28, 2011 at 10:57 AM
