Getting Ready For Fall

Although the nice fall weather has not arrived in south Georgia, we are trying to get ready for the Halloween/Thanksgiving season. I finally got all of our Halloween decorations out and we are slowly decorating with them. The girls and I made some fun pumpkins this weekend that were actually pretty easy to make. It involved melting orange and black crayons on white pumpkins. I would advise if you try this at home to have 2 people with hairdryers and it will go a lot faster. It took us FOREVER to get the crayons to melt because you can't use the hairdryer on high or it will splatter crayon everywhere. Luckily, we had enough people to do it in shifts so it ended up not being so bad.

Ellie did a good job heating the crayons when she was actually aiming the hairdryer at the crayons

The black kind of took over, so I would advise doubling up on the orange crayons 

Emma kept us straight by making sure we were following the directions 

Finished product. Turned out cute, very easy, and inexpensive.
