Germans keep Halloween decorations simple; the holiday has only recently grown in popularity here. Local farmers display pumpkins and gourds on wagons and hay bales. Some grocery stores have a small section of American Halloween candy. Similar to the Germans, I like to keep Halloween decorations sleek. This year, I made these lace-patterned pumpkins from Martha Stewart.
I used foam pumpkins since this project took a bit of time, and I want to display them year after year. I bought a wood carving set from a craft store, and I carved the patterns freehand.
Again, love them! Can't wait to see them tomorrow night :)
