DIY Glittery Pumpkins

While on Pinterest the other day, I came across some really great ideas for Halloween decor. I was especially inspired by the below images. Pumpkins + glitter? You really can't go wrong. Since I'm not known for my patience - I went straight to the store and picked up some glitter of my own. I am so happy with the results and surprisingly, my apartment is not covered in glitter. Here's a short how to.





And you've got yourself some glittery pumpkins ready for display! I went with an orange/gold color and a classic silver. I placed them on a glass tray with a big white candle in the middle. So fun!



Happy Friday - it's finally here!

  17. Oooh these are just fabulous! I'm definitely going to give this a shot. Speaking of glitter a funny thing happened yesterday. I took out my grill pan and there was red glitter in it. I have no idea how it got there but then it got me thinking that maybe I haven't used it since last xmas! Still not quite sure why it would be in my grill pan... :)

    Have a great weekend! xoxo
