Day 11: Glitter Pumpkins and Fall Mantel
I love fall! We are still feeling some summer heat but we're getting there. To help give Texas a hint, I did a little fall decorating here in our home.

I decided this year to use brighter and cooler colors than the typical warm fall colors. I created a yarn wrapped leaf wreath, painted a chevron pumpkin and added a little bling with colorful glitter pumpkins.
These pumpkins are easy! I started by sponge brushing on some modge podge on the top of the pumpkin, leaving the stem clean.
Then I sprinkled on some glitter out of my stash from my sorority days.
I love the color and sparkle that these pumpkins add to our bright fall mantel.

11 down! 20 to go!!
Loving your mantle! And especially the wreath! Did you make that? I just bought materials to make a similar one this weekend! :)
ReplyDeleteI did. I had an old straw wreath form in my supply closet from last year sometime. Over a long road trip I wrapped the wreath with the yarn a couple of times. I cut out the leaves from felt and backed them with cardstock just because I apparently picked up flimsy felt. It didn't turn out as cute as my inspiration wreath so I was a little bummed by it at first but mixing it with other fun colors on the mantel helped me warm up to it!! : )
