Outdoor Fall Decorations

 
 
I was so excited to pull out the fall decorations on my porch. So, I began searching on blogs and on Pinterest various ideas I decided to paint my pumpkins to look like candy corns.
 
 
 
 
 
My first attempt was well... a flop when I used spray paint. I decided to instead us a craft paint and applied a couple of coats of each color before I finished my pumpkins.
 
 
 


Earlier today I decided to take my dog on a walk since the weather was perfect, and slightl cool breeze was in the air. I also brought along my camera to take a few shots of my neighbors decorations.




 
 
We have some very talented people who really go way out with the decorations.
 
 
 
 

Some are simple and under stated.
 
 



I must admit I am not into the ghost and ghouls of Halloween, but I wanted to show you the wide range of ideas that I saw around the subdivision.

  6. It's always lovely to see the different displays. We don't decorate like that over here in the UK, so it's fun to see the different displays. Niki x
