Good morning all!



I just wanted to share with you all my daughter's prize-winning painted pumpkin! She entered it in the local fair this week and won a blue ribbon! Naturally, she is ecstatic!

She did a great job, making and painting everything by herself, without help.

Adorable unicorn food for her unicorn pumpkin! ♥

The ears came out super cute too, made of felt and hot-glued to the pumpkin. I was worried they would come off, but they stuck very well.

Here is the pumpkin at the fair with her ribbon. She will get about $20 prize money, if I'm remembering correctly. Too bad I'm too old to enter, I'd like to try and win $20 too, haha!

I love it a unicorn against All the frightening halloweeners you go junior Squid!

Haha! She loves her unicorns for sure! There was no other option. ;)

This is darling @squishysquid! She is quite talented, you should be proud. I love the colors she used, and of course the unicorn food, very creative :) Man, $20 that is quite a haul! Tell her congrats!

Thanks! It was quite creative! I was proud of her for taking the time to do it right and finish off all the details, since she usually has difficulty staying on task.
Ill tell her! ♥

That is so cool!!!!! I love unicorns. This made me smile huge. :)

Ahh that's too cute, love the addition of the unicorn food, reckon that would have nailed it for the judges ;D That pumpkin though! Glad the ears stayed on :D

Congratulations squishy junior!

She loves it. We collected it from the fair yesterday and she is going to keep it until it rots... :/

In her bedroom or have you managed to convince here unicorns should rot run free outside? :D

Haha, neither.
It is so glorious, it needs to be displayed on the kitchen table. ;)
Im not sure how long it will be welcome there...
