GRUNGY DAY

Evening Prim Folk,  Happy Wednesday to you all.......Was a beautiful day here, cool this morning then just a nice warm sunny day. Went out and caught up on my yard work, weeded, cleaned the flower beds, many spent perennials that have bloomed out needed to be cut, really enjoyed the beautiful day  catching up on the yard work.....Then came in for a coffee break, my mistake was looking on Pinterest, Primitive  Fall  pins, well, such wonderful  pictures and how to tutorials, that did it.  Found one where you take dollar store gourds and grungy  them up to look prim, ok, I can do that and I did, for I had some of the gourds from last year. Like how they turned out, easy peasy too, dip each in melted wax then dust with cinnamon,  they smell good also.  I popped them in a wooden bowl with my old dried sunflower seed heads and now I have a start to some Fall décor, just like that, gotta love Pinterest, but to  addicting........Now that I bored you with my simple post, hope you have a nice evening, September Blessings Francine.

  17. Oh, I am soooo doing this! I am afraid of the wax. Well, the huge mess I can make in so little time. Do you have a pot reserved for wax melting. I heard some use a crockpot. I am with Melissa above. Winding through Pinterest's little paths can eat away a summer afternoon! Good grief!

    Love,
    Heather
