"That's too vogue for my front porch!" -Mom

Good morning faithful friends. While I have several things I want to chit-chat about my time is limited so I am going to put a few topics on the "wait for your turn" shelf and give y'all a break from reading. I did my first craft yesterday since being home from ERC and it was so fabulous! It was a simple craft but I still was on cloud nine the entire afternoon and into the night as I proudly pushed my dad out the front door to see the new and improved vogue pumpkins!
Here is the non-vogue pumpkin pre-glitter. Of course, I pick the windiest day possible to spray paint so in result I am still peeling glitter off my fingers and arms AND our front walkway has a nice dust of glitter on it ;)
This was the glitter "blast" I used and I was actually highly disappointed in it. The glitter wasn't coming out at the same time as the non glitter spray paint (if that's what you call it) and then the can would decide it wanted to spray glitter so it would start spraying FULL blast chunks of glitter. It was a mess to keep it short. But I managed to make one pumpkin turn out decent. The other one looks a little splotchy and sad but I put him on the front porch still because he needs to know he is just as beautiful as the other pumpkin!
Here is my pride and joy! He came out the best.


As you can see Splotchy over there isn't as glitter-fied as Baby on the left but I think he doesn't look too too bad. Maybe today I'll take him back into the operating room for some touch ups!
