Scrappy Pumpkins with SK

With a few canvas scraps left over from other projects, I was inspired by a cute no-sew pumpkin tutorial. Quick and easy for those of us who are challenged with more difficult projects.

Thanks to  Kristy at Three Peppers: http://3peppers-recipes.com/diy-painted-canvas-pumpkins/
for the detailed instructions.

I used burlap ribbon for my stems and curlycews. And green painted burlap for leaves. I loved the simplicity of the pumpkins without faces. I might paint a few scraps of burlap black and pin on faces for Halloween. Then for fall and Thanksgiving just keep them simple.

Past Perfect

Amazing Past Perfect Dresser
I am anxious to re-create this look.  I would like to experiment with decorative paper and Modern Masters Metal Effects Iron Paint to get this look. Incredible color...

How amazing is this original hand-painted dresser? Take a long look at the original painted and papered artwork.

You can read all about Leslie's discovery of this beautiful piece. Thanks Leslie for sharing.
