CHRISTMAS PUMPKINS

What do you do

 with left over pumpkins

from the Fall season?

 

 

This year we had lots of pumpkins

at Buttermilk Cottage

We had decided to go with an Autumn theme

for our Holiday Show...

and just kept buying pumpkins.

 

 

I couldn't bare to just throw them away

and there were just too many

for the compost bin.

SO...my next solution

SPRAY PAINT.

 

 

 

It's amazing how far one can of paint will go.

 

 

Since they were staying outside in the yard,

I didn't even worry about

painting the bottom.

 

 

I scattered them all over the back yard,

and thought I was done.

Then Sue comes home and says,

"No one can see them in the backyard."

 

 

 

So I drag them all back around to the front porch

and try to make a Christmas

statement.

 

 

How long will they last?

I have no idea,

but we'll just enjoy

and hope for the best.

 

 

Do you still have pumpkins

hanging out?

You can buy a can of metallic paint

at Lowes for about four bucks.

 

 

 

Now what else can I salvage?

The wheels are turning!
