With stores full of autumn or Halloween decorations and supplies, I felt inspired to make a colorful pumpkin wreath.

While wandering through the craft store aisles, looking for the first Halloween craft of 2018 we found three items next to each other that were perfect. A wood sign with jagged edges, pre-cut letters (timesaver!), and a glitter tree. Here’s our two takes on the three shared items. Continue reading “Love you 2 “BOO”” →
