Pumpkins Above The Front Door

Posted on | October 1, 2009 | 10 Comments

I can’t believe that it’s the first of October. Fall outdoor decorations are popping up all over Marblehead. Pumpkins and mums are begin to fill empty flower pots and boxes. My favorite fall decorating idea is placing small pumpkins above the front door. So cute, right? A few of my favorites from my neighborhood above and below.

This is so adorable, I can hardly stand it. I need a cider donut to kill the sweetness.

My boyfriend said they same thing Jen…about the smashing. The same houses had pumpkins last year and I don’t remember any accidents.

If you do attempt this make sure you have a sturdy spot and some protection from the wind.

I grew up not far from where you are and now live abroad…
I love visiting your blog! Makes me a bit homesick but love it just the same. I can smell that NE fall and feel the pull of the ocean.
