3-D Framed Wood Pumpkin
Check out how I made this 3-D Framed Wood Pumpkin. I love to turn other people’s trash into treasures! Sometimes other people don’t see the value in items like I do. Going to yard sale’s and find things for fairly cheap to make new again is one of my favorite past times. Finding this cute turquoise chicken wireframe at a yard sale for .25 got me really excited and knew I couldn’t pass it up. At the time of the purchase I had no idea what I would use it for.

Fall Harvest Wood Pumpkin
I know this may sound crazy but the dollar store has some awesome and cute deals. We found the leaves and the metal Harvest wording at the dollar store. If you cut your own pumpkin you will want to make the pumpkin with a flat edge along the bottom. This is so the pumpkin can either stand on it’s own or lean against something. I cut the pumpkin out of pine on my scroll saw and made sure the edges looked wavy like a pumpkin. The versatility is endless on which type of wood you want to use. Once the pumpkin is cut you can sand down the edges of…

Polka Dot Mini Pumpkins make over DIY
During one of our many garage sale adventures we found these Mini Pumpkins. They were painted but pretty basic and just a little out dated. We were able to purchase all of the pumpkins that they had for only $1.00. These Mini Pumpkins were going to come home with us to get a little face lift! First off I sanded a few of them down to a rustic and faded orange. I made sure to get rid of the dark orange lines on the pumkins. Once they were sanded I then added glittered polka dots to the existing orange paint. The easiest way to glitter them is by putting dots of…

Imagine two women trying to get this home and then cutting it themselves on the table…
