I look around on Pinterest and other blogs quite a bit for inspiration in my own home. Then I quickly remember I'm
You may have seen the glitter'd pumpkin on Instagram (I'm tellin ya, you need to follow! It's good times all around). I found her at a thrift store for a little more than a dollar (people always price weird around here), and decided while she was perdy, she needed a little extra glamour in her life, like Cher, way past her prime, but still rockin that eye makeup.

These puppies were super easy to make and I hope everyone makes some. The hubs exact words were "you made these? The look like something you'd pay money for!" (Made my day!)
If you seriously do not have 2x4s lying around and want to make these pumpkins, Lowe's will cut down wood for you if you bat your eyelashes and ask nicely (or show a little leg, can't hurt).
Little extra touches were some free acorns that I
I plan on adding more decor as soon as the kids go to sleep and I can make more. Look for a pinecone glitter'd garland.... oh yeah, the hubs is gonna enjoy that one I tell ya!
Enjoy~
