metallic pumpkins

November 17, 2012 by Erin 4 Comments

I’m a new contributor over at We Use Coupons. com.  Whoohoo.  I’m the “Dollar Store Crafts” contributor and you can find me over there every week.  How fun is that?!  This week I made these fancy metallic pumpkins.  Come and check out the tutorial.  They were so easy.

I was looking for a way to update my Fall/Thanksgiving decor without breaking the bank.

I’ve been seriously loving the mercury glass and white pumpkins I’ve been seeing around.  I want some everytime I see them, but I just can NOT spend that much on season decorations!  So, I did what any self respecting (cheap) DIY girl does, and took myself to the Dollar Stores.

I made these babies for 12 bucks!!  Come over to We Use Coupons.com and see how I did it.  I just love how they glam up my decor a little bit.  I couldn’t be happier with the way they turned out.

Here are some more pretty metallic and white pumpkins for ya to drool over.

These two are from Pottery Barn.  Aren’t they fabulous!?   But, PRICEY!

This next picture is from Martha Stewart.  She knows what’s up.  LOVE IT!

This one is from Better Homes and Gardens.  I love the candle sticks, too.  SO PRETTY!

And this last one is from an other blogger.  She had a similar ideas, (great minds) but she did a few of hers in an unexpected and cool way.  You can check hers out here at Just the Bees Knees.

    I stopped by your blog as part of the November Bloggy Moms blog hop. I am so glad I found it! I am signing up to follow right now–your ideas are so fun and easy. I just saw crock pot beef burritos on the sidebar. I think I’m going to have to try those. 🙂 Stop by and see me if you’re in need of a laugh–I promise you’ll get one at http://www.trashyblog.com. Thanks!

    […]  I can’t wait to get it up on my mantle and fancy the place up a bit.   I just love them.  They’ll look so nice with the metallic pumpkins I made last year.  I need to dig around the basement and find those.  Time to decorate for fall!  Oh […]
