Pumpkin patch.....

(this was taken in vivid color)

Yea they are here....clay pumpkins!!!  I have been waiting for these since last year and now they have arrived!  I spotted these at Lowe's last year but thought it was to soon to buy one and when I decided it was time to get one they were gone!! Yikes, so I asked if they would get anymore in and they said yes since they were new for this year but I would have to wait until next year.  Oh that was hard to take but I waited.......

...until now.  Whoohoo!  It was fun to shop in this little pumpkin patch looking just for the right one....even though my hubby didn't understand the difficulty. Gees...guys right?  Each one had it's own distinct look and it had to be just the right one like when my kids were young.  This is the picture of the patch but I did have to go back the next day to capture it because I didn't bring my camera in and there was no way to go to the car and come back with hubby along.

I was glad I did buy mine because when I came back over half were gone!!!! They were all over the floor but not this day. Wow and that was last weekend they may be gone now

(I am sorry I didn't post sooner..but hurry).

(actual color)

The price is $19.98 and they are made of heavy clay which I absolutely love.  I normally just decorate for fall but these pumpkins reminded my of when my kids were young and how we would go get one every year and carve it out....so I just had to have one.

 This is the one I picked because I thought it just had a happy face and it was looking up at me while I was standing there deciding....so it got a home next to our fireplace in the living room.  What is also cool about these is that the top of it has a nice long handle/stem so you can easily place candle wreaths on them to dress it up.  I also will be buying a pumpkin light that I saw at Home Depot that is extra bright and is used just for them but they haven't come in yet but I am watching for them.  I just love it and if you want one you too you better hurry because they are going fast!
