We had looked all over Orange County and ended up buying a place about 50 yards from our apartment. I guess you could say we liked the area.

Crafts :: DIY Decorative Halloween Pumpkins
Spiders, skeletons, spooky ghosts and pumpkins! That is what October is all about. I always try to do something fun with our pumpkins and this year I have decided to make them less scary and more decorative. I may even decide to keep them around until Thanksgiving, with minor adjustments of course. Seasonal crafts can turn out to be pretty expensive but with a good eye you can make some that are more affordable. What I like and look for are flowers and ribbons, pieces of fabric in colors I love. And of course, I love to glitter too. You will need: Fake craft pumpkins I bought mine at Michael’s…
