The monograms – they are very “Centsational Girl-esque”! Happy Halloween!! I wish I was on your side of the pond, its a fairly miserable “festival” here, with very few getting into the spirit :(
I really love the first two! I’ve never seen them carved only partway through. It looks really pretty, especially the one that isn’t orange on the outside so the orange peeks through.
Too close to call…I love the Martha Stewart ones, but also the BH&G…and SL is not too bad either. I’m with Jess @ Frugal with a Flourish– if you can pull off the Martha style, I’ll be so impressed. :) (Is that a challenge???) ;) Happy Halloween!
I’m a wee bit of a pumpkin traditionalist — I think pumpkins should be scary. Faces are awesome, but I also love the one with the owl and leaves and the second one with the cool branches. I don’t think you have to be insanely traditional, but I think your trick-or-treaters would wonder why there’s a giant “E” on a pumpkin.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the second one with the scary thorny branches. Looks spooky and easy! (I’m all about easy.) Of course, I love the Martha Stewart ones too, but how long would it take to put all those tiny holes in?
You’re right! I can’t decide either. Love the idea of carving your house numbers, but there’s just too many really great looking pumpkins. Just do as many as you can and then stop and say “yes, those are my favorite ones” ! LOL
I just read your staircase post and am SO inspired. We moved into our “new” home last weekend and I have the EXACT same staircase (except where your landing is, I also have a back staircase that goes down and splits the family room and kitchen. I’m considering knocking out the stairs and making it look just like yours). Anyway, I have been thinking about painting the railing black. What’s your opinion on that verses staining like you did?

I love the cats! Those are adorable. Happy Halloween!
I like the cats too! Happy Halloween!!

Girl – if you can pull off that lattice one from Martha I will be in awe! I think that is beautiful! Otherwise, I love the house number stack!
Happy Halloween!
I’m an old fashioned girl when it comes to pumpkins…I love to see faces…so I love the three stacked faces of Martha’s.
Happy Boo Day!

i’m no expert, but i think they’re both wonderful!
Oh my gosh! So cute. I just can’t say which one, but I think Martha is leading the pack.
