The air is crisp. The leaves have fallen. My mum flowers are dying. The mornings are chilly. Winter jackets and knit hats are being worn. Fall is definitely in full swing here in Wisconsin! And as much as I look forward to this time of the year so we can take our annual trips to the apple orchards and pumpkin patches, the kids have something else on their minds.... Halloween!
I decided to break out the Silhouette CAMEO and some craft paint for the pumpkins, to create a quickie outdoor display. Of course, I can't be typical and stick with the black and orange theme. I love color too much. And since the rest of the outdoors is now all brown, black and orange, I decided to spice up the front porch with pinks, teals, yellows and orange.
The kids had fun painting the pumpkins white and adding dots and diamonds... we just went with some artificial ones for now until we can carve up the real ones in another week or so.
I used my Silhouette CAMEO to cut out some letters for the front door and bats for our planters. Since Silhouette now has vinyl that is durable enough for outdoor use, I decided to put it to the test of the harsh fall temps, rains and early snowfalls that Wisconsin tends to bring.
