Running-Horse-PumpkinI love fall and all of the cozy things it brings, especially decorating pumpkins. Get inspired and try to recreate these cowgirl friendly pumpkins for fall.

Try carving a horse on a large pumpkin. Tip – draw the horse on your pumpkin with pencil first before you start carving.

Cowboy-Boot-and-Initial-Studded-Pumpkins-by-Horses-HeelsIf carving seems like a mess and maybe too challenging, try paint and a simple stud design.

These are pumpkins I created last year. I painted my pumpkins white with a few coats of Martha Stewart paint and topped the stems off with silver. Silver studs were used to create initials and silver cowboy boots were painted on the biggest pumpkin.

Colorful-Southwest-PumpkinsGo bold with bright paint colors and make Southwest inspired pumpkins.

Use tape or paper to create triangles for the design.
