Allie of Little Mouse's House had posted a way cute tutorial in which she made a planter out of a pumpkin. As we scrolled past the display of pumpkins at the grocery store this past Sunday, the tutorial popped into my mind and I knew I wanted to do this activity with Ethan, too! We selected a little pie pumpkin and got to work!
Ethan and my husband picked the seed packet out during an afternoon trip to Home Depot. I followed the directions on the back of the packet and am hoping something sprouts soon!
I can. not. handle how cute your child is.
ReplyDeleteI also like this pumpkin idea.... but I can't stop mushing over Ethan.
Haha, thank you! He's lucky he's cute! ;) Maybe he'll see you in November!
DeleteI love pumpkin crafts! isn't this time of year wonderful! Ethan is too cute, i'm sure he is eager to watch the flowers bloom!
ReplyDeleteI always loved this time of the year and the holidays but, man, they're SO much more fun with a little one!
Deleteawesome! our pumpkin has yet to sprout - honestly i have no idea if it will lol! if not, i might try planting a flower in it instead. much prettier :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so nervous nothing will sprout for us, either! I'm not much of a gardener, haha! This was such a cute idea. Thanks again for sharing!
DeleteCool idea! We've got a couple pumpkins that aren't going to get carved. May try this out!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I can't wait to hear how it goes!
DeleteThat is such a cute idea! I have to say that the way you documented the planter and Ethan's little hands look all kinds of adorables!

PS-I have a black thumb...although I just acquired some plants as funny party favors. Let's hope they last a week!
I have a black thumb, too! I'm trying so hard to practice because I'm determined to plant a garden in our backyard when it cools down a little more. Eek. It didn't go so well last time, haha!
DeleteWhat a neat idea! I never even thought about using a pumpkin as a planter. Genius! And oh so cute.

Right?! Allie had such a great idea! Such a fun project!
DeleteThis is so adorable! I can't wait to see the flowers grow. We can only do mums in pumpkins in the snowy north :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute!!! I love this. What a good idea. Too bad we have a ton of snow but it would work inside too. ;)
