Pumpkin Picking 2014 and The Fall Porch

 Good Morning ! Yesterday was one of my favorite days of the year ! Pumpkin Picking Day ! We go to a strawberry farm where you pick a carload of pumpkins .. So fun !

 Last year I pinned this Welcome sign on Pinterest ..I went to Michaels last year to buy the letters but it was just too expensive to make. I read the blog post this year and she said she got the letters at Hobby Lobby .. So I went to Hobby Lobby and on sale the letters were only $13.00 to make the sign:)
 I used spray paint ..my daughter actually painted them for me .. I used Rustoleum Metalic paint and primer in flat Soft Iron color .They look almost wrough iron like. It worked great and I used one of our old craft show display shelves to hot glue  them on . I love the way it turned out !

 On the porch ..there are mums in galvanized buckets and apple baskets ..gourds ,cornstalks.. pumpkins and vintage wood crates.

 We picked 108 pumpkins yesterday plus 4 garbage bags of gourds and have them displayed all around our flower beds..None of my favorite pink pumpkins were found by us yesterday ! Lots of blue and white ones ..

 My $3.00 estate sale rusty wheelbarrow is holding mums and pumpkins and gourds..

 My husband had a new post built for the front porch .. Before it was just a plain little post ..Now it is massive ..We need to find some skinny long house numbers for the front of it .

 I still have my sunflower wreath on the door and I am leaving it until the Halloween wreath goes up..

 This limelight hydrangea is such a pretty dark pink now ..Love it and can't wait until it gets bigger !

 I got those 2 galvanized buckets at the Goodwill last week $2.oo each ..The top one is sitting in a picnic hamper from the flea market. The scarecrows were made by me ..they were from my craft show days and were such big sellers !

Thanks so much for stopping by ! I would love for you to follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest ..all the links are in the sidebar !

Linking to these fabulous parties !
