Baking Pan Pumpkins

 

Hi friends,

I see these painted pan pumpkins everywhere!

The first time was probably 5-6 years ago

on Lora B's blog Create and Ponder

I didn't have any pans

at the time but I kept the idea

in the back of my head.

I really wanted to make some for myself!

Finally I came across some perfect pans this summer.

I was happy to find these!

This paint was in my cupboard- I thought it would

be a great color, even though 

the color is Sun Dried Tomato.

Painted the outside of the pans.

Found a stick in the yard to use as stems.

I pulled a small amount of sphagnum moss 

and wrapped it around my finger.

I used hot glue to attach the moss and stick piece

to the pan.

I collect old T.V. trays and change them up

 with the new season-

This one below is a favorite. I love the black background

with the fall leaves and scattered acorns.

I like how they came out-

I stamped some gift tags for place cards.

We use our FIESTAWARE for the holidays-

I just move the colors I want to use up front

 and the others to the back!

I put away the pastels and bring out the orange, marigold,

cobalt blue and some green.

It's a fun change.

When I put my pumpkin on a plate-

like a cake dome-

Just lift cover to reveal treats!

 

I love this little hiding place-

or use as individual place settings

and hide a treat.

So cute- I can hide some cookies for now

and only you will know.... so don't tell.

Thank you !

I really appreciate the visit.

I hope you have a wonderful day.
