Homecoming season is in full swing and my brother who is a senior is attending two schools' festivities. He asked me if I would make a mum for his date for Allens' game night and also for PESHs' homecoming the following weekend. I finished the Allen mum and it was a lot of fun. I started with the premade mums from Michaels, and then embellished. I'll post the PESH mum when I'm done. I just bought the supplies today. I hope she likes them!
...and my friend Ashley made me a cute R.I.P. halloween decoration that was inspired by Over the Tipsy Top. I think it is so cute! We've seen a lot of different pumpkin decoration ideas as well and thought I'd try one for myself. I bought a real pumpkin because I was at Walmart and I wanted to try it. Then if it didn't work, I can throw it away and not feel bad. I used craft paint and then modge podge and glitter. I will use a good spray paint next time. The craft paint scratches off too easily. Here's the finished product-
I have other pumpkins that I will be working on as well. Not the same old orange pumpkin any longer!

Wow, Mindy you have been busy! Love the mum, love the Halloween decorations! I just got a magazine with cute ideas for painted pumpkins too, can't wait to try one!
Love the mum and the decorations too. I haven't seen a painted pumpkin before. Very cute!
That is so cute! I love the pumpkin idea. Good job on the mum.
That's so cute! I love it! I'm talking about both the mum and the pumpkin and RIP decor. Very creative!
Love the pumpkin! You did a great job! The mum looks great too!
That looks good -just as good as any craft store mum. Way to go! Okay, now it's time to start making those mums for a massive profit! 400 buckaroos apiece.
I love your pumpkins.
