31 Days of Pinterest: Day 26 Vampire Pumpkins
Vampire Pumpkins (and a Gourd)!
The first time I saw these on Pinterest, I KNEW I was going to make them. The picture cracks me up every time I look at it. Even though Steve thought they looked dumb, Amanda & I made some.
Original inspiration:
(Originally from Martha Stewart)
We went to a local farm to pick up the pumpkins (and gourd). They were $1 each. I got the smaller fangs at WalMart and the colored fangs at Target for less than $2. The pins I found in the fabric section of WalMart for around $3.
We started by roughing out an opening for the fangs to set in. Then we scraped all the guts and seeds out.
Then it was just a matter of sliding in the fangs and putting the quilting pins in for the eyes.
I changed out the black fangs in the pumpkin for green ones because the black ones weren't easily seen from a distance.
And here they are again:
I have them on the kitchen windowsill until tomorrow when they'll go outside to join the other pumpkins.
