Halloween Pumpkin Archway

There's nothing quite like those inexpensive pumpkins to scream Halloween! This Halloween Pumpkin Archway is the perfect way to welcome friends, family, and eventually trick-or-treaters! #pumpkins
 
  
This makes a huge statement for little monies. It will be fun to see the children walk through the archway. One could string lights to make it glow at night.

Let's make the archway.

First: Get the pumpkins which are around a dollar.

Drill a hole in the base of the pumpkin large enough to accommodate the largest section of PVC pipes. 
 
 
 
Working one side at a time, stack the pumpkin baskets on the pvc archway and enjoy! Click on the link below for more detailed instructions and to check out all my other Halloween projects!

Until we meet again,

DIY: Sofa Table by Scribd

One aspect of DIY that I appreciate is that you can make it fit your decor. Furniture comes in one size but what if it doesn't fit your room and you really really need it. Here are the instructions for a sofa table that will.

The 4th of July is over but...

Your patriotic theme can go on!!!

Here is a garland that I made:



What will you need:

Well, they didn't have any forms for me to use - check out Trendy Tree for deco mesh wreaths and garland forms. So, I took some rope and measured how long I needed. I tied it to 2 chairs at either ends of the table.

Measured out 6" and added a pipe cleaner. This is what we will use to tied down the ribbons and mesh.

I used 10" deco mesh





Cut all 3 colors 15" in length. I found the middle and twisted it, then I attached it to the rope with the pipe cleaners. I added one layer at a time. Trying to have them go into different directions. I added 3 different types of ribbon that I cut into 15" lengths at the ends. I found the glitter and tied them in last.

When they were laying down they reminded me of pinwheels.

I hope that you will use your imagination and maybe you will make a Halloween garland.

Until we meet again,
Claudia
