I Can't Carve.....

Hello Friends!
Are you ready for Fall like I am?
Last year I finally admitted to myself something that I have denied for years......
I can't carve a pumpkin.
I am Carve Challenged.
My pumpkins always look like a massacre , which would be great if that's what I was going for, but I tend to decorate more with a Fall Harvest theme instead of  Nightmare on Elm Street kid of thing.
Most of the time they just wind up in their natural state like the ones above.
Nothing wrong with that except I have been blessed with some creative genes or two and would love to do something a bit different once in a while.
Like this year for example.

Thank goodness for Pinterest!
You simply type in Pumpkin ideas and
BAM!
Don't you just love how E*A*S*Y this look is?
I wanna do it today, cept I don't have any pumpkins yet!

I know, I know.....the one in the middle has CARVED DOTS. Here's the thing,
last year I actually did this look but it wasn't what I was going for so I feel pretty confident that I can give this another try.
I'll let you know how it goes.

How much do you love this????
Apples...in a wreath.
You could use gourds or even mini pumpkins!!
All super ideas for me, the carve challenged!
Can't wait!!
