A Cheerful Fall Vignette...


Chipping with Charm: Colorful Fall Drawer Shelf Vignette...http://www.chippingwithcharm.blogspot.com/
You might remember this little stacked drawer shelf for my old COFFEE STATION.
When we redid our kitchen it lost it's spot to my Mommy Central...
  And now it moved to a new bright sunny spot near the front door.

Chipping with Charm: Organized Clutter's Mini Mold Pumpkinsh
Have you seen these little jello mold pumpkins by Carlene at Organized Clutter??  I was "in love" from the moment I saw them.

You might remember that I too enjoy turning random things into pumpkins. I think Carlene and I are are cut from the same junk "mold"...pun intended ;)

Bundt Pan Wreath and MORE :)

I just couldn't resist making a "few" for the booth.  And can you believe I used all things I had "on hand"??


Chipping with Charm: Mini Mold Pumpkins...http://www.chippingwithcharm.blogspot.com/

I had an assortment on molds in my stash.

Some I lightly painted and distressed.

The stems were some plastic knobs I had purchased a while back at IKEA...just in case.  They came in handy in an unexpected way.
I used Gorilla Super Glue to adhere them to the top.  (I only used molds with a plain top...no bumps or JELLO for a better seal)

When the glue dried, I wrapped the knob with twine and tied on a little button/mini leaf combo for embellishment.  Then I twisted in a little rusty spring remnant.  I knew I save those for a reason!!

So what do you think?  Does it look like a pumpkin?

Easiest "Sweater Pumpkin" EVER?? For real...


Baby Hat turned "Sweater Pumpkin" by Chipping with Charm

Caution...this post might make you SMILE :)


You might already know that I don't sew, knit, crochet...basically, I don't do anything that might take "time".  I love quick and easy projects...and friends, this might be the quickest and easiest YET.


Get yourself a pretty pumpkin...


...and a sweet little baby hat...



I wrapped the stem with twine, added some curled wire and a couple of keys for "leaves"..."junky details".


So what do you think?  
Easiest yet?  
Enjoy your day!

Re-purposing for FALL...revisiting...


I love fall and I LOVE re-purposing...here's a little peek back at some things I've made in past years...











So that's a few "blasts from the pasts".  
I haven't done too much for here for fall...yet.  I'm hoping to change that today.  I may have to run out for a pumpkin spice latte for "inspiration"??

Thanks for stopping by!

Chat soon,
