White Pumpkins with Spice


As much as I love white pumpkins, the kid in me says, yawn, they can be sooo grown-up. So I surfed around and found these two ways to customize pale pumpkins so they're both elegant and fun. 


These pumpkin-seed eyed owls from Better Homes and Gardens are cute, but not cutesy.
Check out bhg.com for easy directions.
BTW, you might want to keep these inside so the owls don't get their eyes pecked at by birds. That's definitely not elegant.






....or try wrapping the stems of your white pumpkins with jute. I love the curled ends! A collection of these would make a pretty mantlescape.
