Painted Pumpkins

Arts & Crafts

Fall is my favorite time of year.
The trees turn such beautiful colors.
All the different shades of red, yellow and brown.
Where I grew up, our town always became extra busy in the fall.
We were invaded with people who came for the "Color Tour".
Since I grew up with that around me I thought they were very silly.
But now that I live further south with not as many trees I now can
appreciate what that "Color Tour" was all about.

The end of October brings Halloween. What a fun time of year that is.
Kids of all ages enjoy Halloween. The stores have such wonderful
accessories to purchase for this most festive day. It just seems a shame
that some of those decorations can't be used longer.

Pumpkins are one of the traditions of the Halloween season. They are fun
but they are also very messing. They really don't last very long and I can remember
my mother struggling to prepare the pumpkins so that us kids could carve scary faces.

My neighbor has a much better way. Easier and much more practical.
And the fact that no one stands the chance of cutting themselves makes it even nice.

She paints pumpkins. Some are scary, some are funny, each are unique and different.

So many of the schools are no longer allowing the children to dress up and enjoy
Halloween parties many have opted to take the kids to the pumpkin patch and not only
choose their own pumpkins but are now taking them back to school to paint and then
take home to enjoy for many weeks.

School Halloween parties have been replaced with pumpkin painting parties.
Although I always enjoyed dressing up and showing off my costume I am sure
that painting a pumpkin would be a fun activity too.

I found a book about pumpkin painting it offers lots of tips and ideas for you.
