MR.BITTERSWEET

Morning Prim Folk,  hope all is well for you this Monday morning...........It is a rainy day here this morning, we were going to the lake to spend my last 3 days of my,  gulp,  holidays but decided to let the rain stop, supposed to this afternoon, then we will go............So, with the rain falling,  I decided to get crafty, by no means am I a crafter but if I want something bad enough I will try to make it.  Well, I wanted a very simple  prim pumpkin man so I found some things I had  around the house and spent the morning crafting.  Stitched a pumpkin head, then painted it, had a old horseshoe nail I  used it as the nose,  then put the head  on a cinnamon stick . Had a little burlap pillow I was not using so that's the body, stuck the head into the pillow,  slowly coming along,  tied some raffia for a belt, candy corn buttons and used old dried   Bittersweet for arms,  I  really can't get anymore primitive then him.
................Wishing you a wonderful day, Prim Blessings Francine.

    I think it is safe to declare that you can no longer proclaim to not be a crafter. He is adorable and very crafty!

    Hi Francine, Mr. Bittersweet came out great! Not a crafter, you just defined primitive in your simple pumpkin man. Great job, enjoy the lake:)

    If you are not a crafter, you have fooled me, Mr. Pumpkin is perfect!

    And if you could send some rain in our direction, that would be great--Enjoy your last day of your holiday! :-)
