I am linking this old post from 2009 back up for the Season! It’s still one of my favorite diy creations!
Enjoy!
I don’t remember where I first saw the idea, but in prepping for the cooler Fall weather, I decided to do a little decorating today!
I took this…
and turned it into this
How’d I do it? I simply spray painted the flower pot with Rustoleum’s flat black paint.
For the pumpkin, I decided what font I wanted using plain ol’ Microsoft Word and printed it out. Then I traced it on to wax paper and cut out the “S” with an exacto knife. I taped the paper to the pumpkin and simply spray painted it. Next time, I will definitely hand paint the letter on, because as you can see, the spray paint ran a little. There’s many ways you could do this though. I bought the pumpkin with a 40% off Michael’s coupon. This way, I can pull it out year after year, but you could definitely use a real pumpkin too.
But, I must admit that overall, I really love the new look! What do you think???
it's always amazing what a little spray paint will do! that pot looks so great black!!
thanks so much for sharing!! xo ~ kristi
