I didn’t grow pumpkins in my garden this year, but that doesn’t mean I was without harvest. No, I grew mine in a crafty sort of way, and my bounty was quite the menagerie.
I grew a distressed leather pumpkin……….

And, for my friend, I grew some furry, glitzy and glamorous ones.

Not too shabby a harvest, wouldn’t you say? They were very fun to grow. I love all the pumpkins you crafty folks have been growing, too. There are so many fabulous posts out there. Very, very pretty!
The pickings are slim with regard to harvesting the remainder of my summer flowers, but I managed to throw together this little arrangement; I’ll enjoy it for as long as I can.

My garden tchotchkes have all been stored away, save for a few things here and there. I always keep this little bistro set out; it looks so pretty surrounded by snow, especially when the birds come to feed.
