Halloween lovelies

After pinning quite a few painted pumpkins on Pintrest, my family and I decided to give it a go...


They sit next to my fireplace along with some other Halloween lovelies...


I made the banner out of luggage tags that I found at Michaels.  The tags were a little to perfect, so I painted and antiqued them with a burnt sienna color.  I then printed out the word "Harvest" in a Rosewood font and glued each letter to a tag.  To add to the Halloween vibe, I covered the front of the tag with birdcage veiling...


Vinnie the vulture looks down over the fireplace.  He too was a great find at Michaels!


And what's Halloween without Abigail the librarian hanging out with the crew...


I bet you can't guess where I purchased the black glittery trees from???  Michaels!  I know.  Crazy.

Happy Harvesting!

Jamie

I've been seeing the painted pumpkins abound this year and thinking of trying my hand at it as well. Your post is the tipping point for me... Thinking About, just became Planning To, and imminently! Thank you for the inspiration!
