Pumpkin Tree

Spooky Chandy and Other Spooktakular Awesomeness

I love the holidays!!! As soon as Autumn hits, my craziness begins.  First, lovely Fall leaves and pumpkins, then October 1st happens and out comes the cobwebs, spider webs, and black spray paint!  Ever since we bought our first house, I have done a new craft project every year.   First, 2008, I gilded pumpkins, inspiration from Country Living.  In 2009 I went crazy with Martha Stewart's website and cut out a bunch of little mice, cats, and bats.  This year, my inspiration came from Country Living again, the pumpkin(s) tree.   I found all of my white pumpkins from Micheal's, ($4- $10 at 50% off), outlined my tree with a sharpy, and painted it in with black acrylic paint I already had.  The sheets over the furniture idea came from the same magazine and give the room a desolated look.
