I was walking through Hobby Lobby's Art Supply section one day and spied these oval canvas's (?) and at some random moment later I had a lightbulb idea - Pumpkins!
These are so easy - I bought the $11.99 size Canvas - and it was 40% off, so approximately $7. Plus some green satin ribbon from another store, approximately $2 - and a can of orange spray paint (for outdoor durability and gloss)(although it didn't cover as easily as I think craft paint would have...it took about 4 coats) $4 and I already had black paint. If you had a silhouette that would be even easier to either cut a stencil to paint with for your features, OR cut some vinyl.
They also had different size canvas' at Hobby Lobby - you could make your own pumpkin patch!
First Step: Paint the canvas orange
Second Step: Add black monogram, initials, jack o lantern features, etc. (If you want - you can also leave it plain.)
Third Step: Make a lime green ribbon bow.
Fourth Step: Attach bow - I actually attched mine with a straight pin for these photos, but you could use glue, or a safety pin.
Fifth Step: Hang anywhere!

These are great! I really like all of them; I think the monogram is my favorite, but the faces are really cute too! I'd be thrilled if you'd link these to my p'kin party!
