Hello Friends, Hello Friday!
New Pumpkins in
This is the dot fabric in gray, by Sheri Berry Designs for Riley Blake. 
This fabric is part of the Costume Clubhouse collection.
This is my favorite fabric from the collection!
I was excited to find the perfect ribbon!
The ribbon has silver glitter polka dots!

 One of these days, I think it just might cool down!
We are still in the 100 plus temperatues.
Thank goodness my pumpkins won't melt!
Have a beautiful weekend!


Wood Pumpkins

Posted by admin


             
 Welcome back to A 
SIMPLE
Fall/Halloween Wood Craft!
(you may remember the wood pumpkins from last year.)


I want to bring them back, as I am making more!
This project is easy and FUN to CREATE!
At Lowes or Home Depot, you can have your boards pre-cut.
I  made my pumpkins with wood scraps (2 X 6) measuring 11 inches length.  

Spray your 11 inch wood boards with Krylon Orange Spray Paint 

Additional Supplies:
Sand paper for the edges

Natural Fall Harvest elements from nature are great!
Twigs, bird nests, leaves, berries all bring a nice touch!
I also included:
Jute twine, fall ribbon, grapevine wreaths, fall picks, and burlap
for flowers and leaves.
Let the FUN begin!

First:  Start with the stem of the pumpkin,
I simply used my glue gun to attach the decorative items.
Second:  Add rolled burlap flowers and leaves.
Third:  Add Fall picks and ribbon.

There are so many creative ways to embellish your pumpkin!
Have Fun and Enjoy!


Wishing you all a Beautiful Fall!
Enjoy!

A Fall Centerpiece Tutorial

Posted by admin

The Twelve Days Of Creative Fall!
(re-posted from September 8, 2011)
Welcome to
Seasons In The Sun!
(I added a magnet to the chalkboard, so you can easily add notes and fun magnets)
 CREATE A FALL CENTERPIECE
A Fall Harvest Centerpiece
 with sunflowers, the colors of Fall, along with 
Pumpkins, Apples and Sprinkles of Fall!

I have taken several pictures of my Fall Centerpiece indoors. 
The pictures turn out fine, but the lighting inside my home does not portray the true colors of Fall
that you see in the centerpiece. 
My best pictures are from this little black bench on my front porch.
(Natural Light is always best.)

You CAN easily make this Fall Centerpiece.
Supplies:
Tall cylinder glass vase or any tall container.
One glass vase or container that fits inside tall container that will allow
space for your fruits and vegetables.
Fall Harvest fruits and Vegetables of your choice
Long Fall Flower Stems
(T found my flowers at Michaels Craft Store 50% off)
Fall garland and Fall Beaded Wreath (optional)
Fall Ribbon

Follow along with the pictures, the steps are pretty simple and self explanatory.
Fill your Glass Cylinder Vase with Fall Harvest Fruits and Vegetables
Add a Fall Wreath Garland of Fall Beads
Add your tall Fall Flowers to the smaller Glass vase.
You may want to tie them to keep them together.
Add Sunflowers around the Glass Vase to your liking.
Add Fall Ribbon and  you are finished!
You can display your Fall Centerpiece well into the end of November!
Place your Centerpiece with baskets of Fall Harvest vegetables.



Enjoy!

Thank you for your etsy orders!
