Pumpkins On A Wreath
October 02, 2013
Decorating with Pumpkins day 4- Must they be orange?
is where the decorating fun begins. For this wreath I chose bright
purple pumpkins with oodles of glitter. ( I adore glitter, one of the
things in life that makes me smile...)
When making this wreath my inspiration came from the Addams
family. I am sure you are familiar with the adventures of this
blissfully macabre family. I wanted to create a wreath that they
would proudly hang on their front door!
I began with a grapevine wreath, in order to make it a bit more
festive for the Halloween season I spray painted it a light gray.
Keeping with the Addams family theme I remembered that Morticia
did like black roses and she also had a certain flair about her so I
added some black daisies with bling centers.
I do like big bows and deco mesh just seemed like the perfect
material for the colorful theme that I was going with. Since I was
envisioning more of a feminine Halloween wreath I also added a
bright, pink and bold witches shoe.
Enjoy and experiment with all of the bright and colorful pumpkins
for your fall decorating themes!

ReplyDeleteI love it! It's very Adams family indeed and I just love how it says "Hallowe'en' right away even without using the traditional colours!

Oh my gosh that is so sweet! It could be the Adams Family, the Wizard of Oz, and for Halloween. I would never have thought of making one of these ever - and it is so sweet! Love it. sandie
ReplyDeleteThe Adams would be proud! lol! Glitter is so fun. The only draw back is that I find it everywhere! Looks so fun and festive Jemma. Thanks for sharing it with SYC.

Oh Jemma, did I tell you that my favorite color is PURPLE? This wreath caught my eye, and it is so decked out for Halloween. I like the purple pumpkins, the witche's boot, and all the glitter. You did a great job. It does look like something from the Addams family.
