Autumn Updates: Entry

 
I wanted to try something fun for our doorway this autumn.  Last year I used pumpkins (which later became jack-o-lanterns) and a corn stalk which attracted squirrels in droves:

This year, I opted for pumpkin house numbers.  Leaving the pumpkins uncarved will hopefully keep the squirrels at bay, and I think it's a fun and festive way to dress up our home.

You will need:
  • Pumpkins (enough for each number of your house)
  • Black paint
  • Paint brush
  • Newspaper to cover your work surface
Simply paint your house numbers onto the pumpkins
 
I decided to add a few little designs on each pumpkin, too

Then arrange them on the steps however you'd like!


What do you think?  Any autumn decorations going up at your home?
