Don't Throw Out Those Pumpkins!

Since our motto is "use what you have", we hate to be wasteful after Thanksgiving and get rid of our  pumpkins just because they're orange and don't work with traditional winter holiday colors. So we spray painted them gold,  used them on our Thanksgiving table with other fall decorations:

                                                                      
and then transitioned them into our holiday mantle, mixing them with green garland, brass candlesticks, and gold balls - festive, fun, and frugal!
