DEBBIE-DABBLE BLOG: Dabbling with Pumpkins for Halloween!!

I am a Victorian Soul, who lives in a small townhouse that was built in the mid 1970's, not a huge Mega Mansion!! I just recently lost my Hubby Joe, who was a Retired Letter Carrier. I worked night shift as an RN on a Hospital based Rehabilitation( Physical Medicine) Unit for 37 years before I had Knee Replacement Surgery and officially Retired in 2019 after 41 years working in Direct Patient Care ... I am so glad that we retired at 62 years of age and got to spend that time together before he passed....I still do love Retirement!!!!

I DABBLE IN A BIT OF THIS AND THAT!!!!

Dabbling with Pumpkins for Halloween!!

First, I want to Thank Stacey, over at Embracing Change , for featuring my post, An Elegant Autumn Tree,
from last week's Creative Impressions Party!! You can check out the features HERE.....

Thanks so much, Stacey!!

Please stop by and visit and link up to this great party!!

You may remember that I "blinged" up some pumpkins for Fall to help create an elegant Fall look in my Living Room.......

I decided I would do some dabbling with some pumpkins that I plan on using in the Dining Room which will be decorated for Halloween.......

My color theme for Halloween in the Dining Room is silver, black and white......

I did throw in pops of orange this year too......

I painted some pumpkins silver.........

Used a few Letter Stickers to spell out "Boo"........

Added some trims from my stash.........

I drizzled some silver glitter on a black pumpkin............

And added a bow of lace.......

This one was bought for 90% off on Clearance last year and had no stalk .........

So I glued a glittered black skull to the top instead and drizzled it with silver glitter.....

The sequins were already on it but I added the trims........

I painted this one silver........

Added black lace and silver trim.......

More trim on this one......

An owl and spider on a leaf was glued to the top......

Sequined trim on this one.....

So there is my new batch of pumpkins for the Dining Room.....

I made this one a few years ago but added the trim this year......

This one was glued to a wood candlestick that I painted black after I added black and silver glitter to the top of it.....

This one that I dabbled with a few years ago, was bought at Dollar Tree, spray painted black, glittered and a bow added.......

I also added trim and spray painted this one......

Also, this orange and black one had the stem broke off but again at 90% off, who cared!!!!

I just added a bow!!

Sneak Peak of where I displayed the pumpkins....

I have had a great time crafting for Fall and Halloween!!

In my next post, I will share a few more Halloween crafts..........

And soon I will be sharing our Dining Room decorated for Halloween!!

I have been getting ready for a Fall Open House on Sunday for family......

Hopefully, I will remember to take photos of my sister and her family!

I hope you will come by and visit again!!

And thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!
