This is a close up of a styrofoam pumpkin that I decorated with some silk leaves. I hope it makes you smile.

Good on you ...I'm digging it...it's also fun to paint pumpkins...then when the seasons over store in a cold place...roast and make all kinds of pumpkin goodies. Roasted pumpkin seeds, yummy ...I can pumpkin butter, it's so delicious, on top of some pumpkin bread...so tasty...pumpkin pancakes & muffins...there's a bunch of health benefits to it also...

May your day sparkle...like your pretty pumpkin...

Dump trucks of groovy love, peace, light, joy and hugs for you!

Thank you. I find craft projects relaxing and when I get my decorations out next year I will look at it in a whole new light.

I love to craft....going and getting your own grapevine to make wreaths, baskets,trees, angels, etc....fun and occupies the mind!

I'm downsizing on all my deco's...it's a lot of work to do and my girls are digging getting them all...I like to keep it simple these days yet pretty...my motto at this stage in life...Less Is More!

May your day sparkle!

I'm downsizing too. Anything my children don't want goes to charity. Sometimes I even drop a few things off at local nursing homes. My daughter has a dog and two cats so I'm hoping she'll take her things soon lol

Yep I do the same if my girls don't want the stuff....most of it they do want...

Oh hahaha...I'm storing stuff for my one daughter as she doesn't have the room...

Got rid of most of my fall deco's to them...feels good to purge the stuff away...at one point I had 70 boxes of Christmas deco's...kids are grown...no need for all the hoopla these days...or the work, ha!

Make it shine today!

I love this! Ive been to craft fairs and markets this past fall. With my healing journey Ive been getting really into looking at crafts. A few years ago I tried DIY painting wood signs and wood letters. We have a few hung up in our room. I wish I had the space and patience to continue crafts.

If you really enjoy crafts they make wonderful gifts. Since they were born I have made both of my children Christmas ornaments. They are grown now and have quite a collection. Sometimes I make extras and tape them to wrapped gifts. As for patience I work on something for a bit then walk away. Some days I skip crafting altogether. I love going to craft fairs for inspiration. If you enjoy crafting think about starting it again. It's a great outlet. Thank you so much for the compliment. Glad you liked my pumpkin.

I made a sign for my baby twin neices for their playroom that said "Land of Make believe" with all the kids initials💙💕

My living situation I barely have space to work. If I had room for supplies Id get more into it. I do have some things Id like to attempt for our spring wedding!

Sounds beautiful! I don't have much room to work either so I stick to small projects and work at the kitchen table, my coffee table or on a small fold up card table. Only buy what I need for the project I'm working on. If it doesn't fit in a tote bag forget it. Sometimes I even store supplies in my car lol
