  1. So many cute and classy ideas! I washed my pumpkins, as suggested by one of the bloggers in your group, and I really think they are lasting longer. I pulled one out yesterday and cut it open to put my dip in for a chip & dip tray!!I have enjoyed your pumpkin posts so much that I will be sad to see the season change. However, I am sure you will keep us entertained with festive ideas!!

  3. So many wonderful ideas. Now the job is to see which ones to use. Thank you so much. So many ways I have never thought of.

  5. I have one more for your list. Buy a package of little plastic mice. Cut little round holes all over the pumpkin. Insert a mouse in each hole. Have some mice peeking out of the holes and some with their tails sticking out. A mouse hotel! It’s not glamorous but very cute. I got the idea from Martha Stewart years ago and had fun doing it with my grandchildren. They loved it!

  7. I’m always reading great ideas in your posts. I hadn’t thought of doing several of these easy to do decorating ideas. I like the idea of lining my windowsill with pumpkins. I liked the idea of putting fruit kabobs into a pumpkin as a serving display idea. My favorite idea is the spray paint in water! Happy Saturday!

  17. Yvonne! You are making everything SO difficult for me! 🙂 All of your inspiring ideas for fabulous pumpkins have left me with so many choices, I’m having a time deciding which one(s) I want to do! I keep changing my mind. Your posts could not have come at a better time. Since the beginning of the summer, I’ve been in a creative funk…so dry. I tried several things over the summer to “jumpstart” myself and…nothing. I just recently started following your blog and what a difference you have made! I’ve been reading all of your posts and studying all of of your Pinterest boards and slowly but surely, I’m feeling my creative side coming back to life. I have started an inspiration board in my office with ideas I’ve gotten from you, thank you for sharing your marvelous mind!

  25. Yvonne, I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for all the hard work you put into your blog!
    It has come such a long way since you first started and you have done an absolutely amazing job!
    I truly admire everything about you. Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate reading them, they are always inspiring! I also opened my Autumn Cottage Journal last month and first thing I saw was your house! I shouted out to my husband, “My friend Yvonne has her home in Cottage Journal!” He said, “Do I know her?” “Well, she is my blog friend,” I said. He looked confused. LOL! So happy for you!
