31 Days of Autumn - Day 16 & 17

Day 16


Day 17

Funny story about this pumpkin, this is just a plain ol' pumpkin we picked up at the Pumpkin Patch. After bringing it home I wanted to do something different with it, so I got out a craft knife and randomly made squiggles all over it. Set it on my window sill and left it, two weeks later this is what it looks like, it's turning green. That is NOT pain.......ugh, I meant PAINT LOL, I didn't paint it all. How amazing huh?

I thought you painted that pumpkin. I wonder what caused it to turn green? It looks pretty cool that way!

That looks really amazing, Sandra. I've never heard of pumpkins going from orange to green.

That is strange, I wonder if you do that to any ole' pumpkin if that would happen again or if that one is something special??
Love your side bar pictures of the family...

What a cute "treat" from nature or is it a "trick" she left you?
