No, I am not writing about food made with pumpkin, although I have been craving pumpkin desserts like a nut lately! And yes, this weekend I did make the.most.delicious.pumpkin.cream.cheese.muffins.ever. I’ll even be nice (although I’m sure the calories are, um, not so nice) and share the recipe with you. Check out Annie’s Eats—which is rapidly becoming one of my favorite blogs—and give her muffins a try. Scrumptious, I tell you!
But if you’re looking for a cheap and easy fall craft, these homemade paper pumpkins are right up your alley.
Seriously, I was listening to a podcast and messing around with some scrapbook paper, and within ten minutes both of these pumpkins magically appeared!
Find the step by step instructions here. You might notice that I made my pumpkins more petite, which makes them more portable for decorating. I also used jute twine in place of ribbon, and I love how it stands up like a stem and has an organic feel to it (some of you know that I think the word “organic” is way overused, but it just seems to fit here…maybe that’s why it’s overused…people just think it fits everything…I digress). One more look at the cute couple.
Just for the record, I love Pinterest, and recently I’ve been trying to actually make some of the things I find on the site, as it’s so easy to pin and never do. Ya know? Speaking of, I think it’s time to get your Betty Crocker on and try your hand at those pumpkin cream cheese muffins—before you forget about them and move on to something else. They’re just too good to miss. Promise.
I totally ended up writing about food made with pumpkin. Such is blogging.
