Primp Your Pumpkin...or not!

When  a few bloggers got together & decided to have a

Primp your Pumpkin party, I thought,

"Great idea, I'm in!"

This may be a long post, but I think you will find it

"entertaining."

Not having a real plan (as I never do), I gathered

some supplies.

Oh good heavens, what IS that in the corner of that photo?

Those wrestlers are bound & determined to show up on my

blog over & over again!

Unbelievable!

Anyway, I used the orange pumpkin & after spending

way too much time on my primping project,

I decided I hated it.

(sorry, no picture)

I thought, ok...maybe it's the orange that is throwing

the whole thing off.  I then took everything apart

and decided to spray the orange pumpkin

with a metallic bronze spray paint.

That would surely be the cure!

I then glued all the embellishments onto

the bronze pumpkin.

No, it wasn't pretty at all! 

Brace yourself

while I let the pumpkin do the talking....

Is it a UFO?  A crown for the Sultan of Brunei?

I don't have a clue, but I know that it's U-G-L-Y!

(look I made a rhyme)

I won't even begin to tell you the comments made

by my loving family about this pumpkin!

Yet, here I am...still determined to produce a primped pumpkin.

I will not be knocked down!!  I am nothing if not persistent.

I shall overcome!  I still have a white

pumpkin to use, right?

Well, I get it in my head that glitter would be a good thing.

So I glittered my pumpkin. 

Nope, not pretty!

There are no words to describe how I feel.

Mr. Pumpkin...I'll let you do the honors....

I have to report, that I am now officially beat down.

Down & Out.

There is no way  I am going to spend another

minute or hour primping another pumpkin!

Call me crazy, but I know when to quit.

I look forward to enjoying all your primping and I promise

not to make one snarky comment about your beautiful primped

pumpkins even though mine were epic fails. 

Scouts honor.
