Hi, I’m Carrie and I blog about creating a lovely home for less at Lovely Etc.

While I adore being a wife and mom, I also have an insatiable need to create! I love figuring out how to make beautiful things – even if it means firing up a few power tools.

During the end of my illness, I did manage decorating pumpkins for the house using washi tape and fabric.

I started with an orange foam pumpking and some black and white chevron washi tape.

I just used the washi tape to create vertical “stripes” on the pumpkin. I brushed some mod podge over top of the tape to keep it from coming up as the month went along.
