I love decorating with pumpkins for the fall!
I’m so honored and excited to be teaming up with 14 of my favorite blogging friends and Country Living Magazine today to bring you the first EVER Pumpkin Palooza!
If you are stopping by from Craftberry Bush or Bless’er House, welcome! I’m so glad you’re here! I’m April, and I’m the wife, mommy, teacher, blogger, photographer, and decorating fanatic (whew!) behind this blog. I hope you’ll be back time and time again!
After you are done here, be sure to check out the rest of the beautiful pumpkin projects throughout the week!
It’s October, and that means there’s no such thing as too many pumpkins in this house! Some pumpkins here, some more over there, stick some in here, and oh! don’t forget riiiiight there! 😉
I had so much fun throwing together this pumpkin mantel! It was as easy as adding pumpkins to my existing fall decor, and making a couple of Jack’oLantern signs.
Miss L. loves to get her hands on these pumpkins She likes to take them back to her playroom and “decorate” with them…
…and by “decorate” I mean put them in her doll’s crib, or in her play kitchen’s oven…you just never know where you’ll find a pumpkin hiding. She gets very indignant about her “decorating” too, so I’d better think twice before I even think about moving them back to their original spot.
#ohnoyoudidn’t
I can’t really be mad though…she honestly wants to be just like me. She loves to “decorate” and I love that she loves to do things like Mama.
When I’m done decorating and taking pictures, she even pretends that my tripod is her camera, and “takes pictures” of the house for her “blog”!

Hi April,
I discovered your blog today via the Bless’er House blog, and not only read your post for today, but perused the last several posts and really enjoyed myself! Love all of your fall decorating posts and projects….. :0)
Blessings,

Awww, that just made my day, Lanita! Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you’ll become a regular here too! I think Lauren and I have a very similar aesthetic, so if you love her blog, you might just love mine too! Thank you again for your sweet words! xo
So pretty!!! I love all the fall color and that old window makes a perfect backdrop. Those jack-o-lantern signs are adorable too!
I love the window too, Tonya! Thank you so much for your sweet words! xo
I absolutely love those leaves!!! Where can they get purchased?! I just had a passive idea for my wedding next year!
Thank you, Jessica! They are from JoAnn Fabric (this season)! 😉
So pretty April! My boys don’t seem to have quite caught the decorating bug;)
They probably play hockey with your pumpkins! HA! xo
Love the mantel and can’t wait to see the fun jack ‘o lantern project!
Have a great day!

Thank you, KariAnne! I’m so excited to share the tutorial! xo
April your mantel is just gorgeous! I love that you were able to use your existing decor and then load in all of that pumpkin goodness. And I had to smile about your daughter because mine did the same thing! They’re just taking after their mamas right? So fun to be apart of this party with you this week!
So so pretty.xo
Love your fall mantle! Too cute about your daughter!
Oh my goodness, I love those jack o lantern signs so much! can’t wait for the tutorial. Love the rest too, your mantel is always so pretty!
Love it, April! I had to giggle at the “pumpkin hiding”. My daughter does the same thing. I have to quickly photograph everything before she undoes it. So honored to be a part of this bloghop with you!
April, this is just perfect! I love how your mantel looks with the little pumpkins, and I am about to go read the tutorial on the jack-o-lantern signs because they are seriously adorable! So much fun doing this blog hop with you! You are a talent! XOXO!
