I was lamenting the fact that we didn't carve pumpkins this year, but the bright side is that they make great, simple porch decorations through Thanksgiving~Have a great weekend and if you haven't already, you have through Sunday to comment on my houzz interview for the chance at the $50 Target gift card. Good luck!
p.s. if you have photoshop elements and are wondering how I colored the pumpkins, here is a great tutorial.
Loooking over your Houzz interview. I loved the photos. Can't pick my favorite, all are beautiful. I do really like the vingate suitcases. I was not familiar with Houzz previously. I will take more time later to check it out further. Thanks, Amy amydhay@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI'm going to check out the interview now. I feel better. We got busy and did not carve pumpkins this year either. They have forgotten, so far! We may have to carve one for Thanksgiving! :) I love Photoshop and am going there now to check it out! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI was not familiar with Houzz either but its such a wonderful resource. My favorite picture was the laundry room with the lamp and the basket. Love the green color, love the texture and love the black accents. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love this picture. How did you make it to have a black and white picture and all the pumpkins and leaves colored? Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Now that my kids are a little bigger, they're not quite so much into carving pumpkins. So I just use them 'til Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI loved your Houzz interview so much that I emailed them to thank them for it!
I love your pumpkin porch! Sometimes simple is best, anyway! We carved pumpkins but they had to be tossed within a day or two 'cause they started to rot. I like uncarved ones better anyway!
ReplyDeleteDitto! We didn't carve ours and they still look good next to the front door. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is just what I did this year...put out the pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteNice picture. I just got elements, and was wondering how to do that. Very helpful! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo! We didn't carve pumpkins this year either. I was down with swine flu and hubbie was a bit overwhelmed being a single parent. My kids didn't seem to mind either.
ReplyDeleteThey look lovely all piled up! I still have two pumpkins we didnt carve, and a couple little ones.
ReplyDeleteI have been behind in my blog reading because I am drowning in boxes and STUFF sitting everywhere looking for a home:) I got an email from HOUZZ and I can't wait to read all about your house. I haven't even had time to do that. I will try and get there tonight or tomorrow. How nice to be featured.
ReplyDeleteYour pumpkins look so cute all set up outside your door!
ReplyDeleteI love that my pumpkins onthe porch lsted past Halloween, too! For the same reason.
ReplyDeleteAlso thanks for the photoshop elements tip. I don't know how to get around elements very well yet.
New to your blog!!!
I wish pumpkin carving season came AFTER thanksgiving, because I like to use plain pumpkins as decorations too. AND I really like to eat them. yum!
ReplyDeleteI love this picture. How did you make it to have a black and white picture and all the pumpkins and leaves colored? Beautiful!
