pumpkin stand

Under the influence of Pinterest, again, I made a rustic pumpkin stand.

You might have seen a few around,  Ana White had a few great posts on them, so I had to make one too. It was quite easy, I followed the directions, except of the wood, I could not find cedar so I used pressure treated wood, about $3 worth of it.

To finish the pumpkin, I first roughly painted with some orange craft paint, sanded a little, then applied some stain (early american, my favorite color). I think it adds a nice texture to this pumpkin.

And there is a lot of space for those candies, perfect for the trick or treaters..... if one is not too scared of the crows!
Happy day!
