There is something reassuring about standing for something, and knowing what we stand for.
For men and women who are true to themselves and to the virtues and standards they have
personally adopted, it is not difficult to be true to others.
{ Gordon B. Hinckley, standing for something }



Kinda Cute



Every once in a while, I DO actually make time for my creative outlets. My most recent "burst" of creativity was brought on by the desire to get the ladies I visit teach a "treat" for Halloween, but since two of the three are on restricted diets, I had to think outside of the box. And voila -- these cute little pumpkin planters with pansies inside. I got the idea from a magazine, which featured pumpkins with beautiful fall mums inside, but that was a little spendy for our law student budget. I was pretty darn proud of how cute and simple these turned out, though!

lllllooooooovve them!! too cute! you are quite creative, indeed. we haven't so much as bought a pumpkin this year, let alone carved one-i was so sad we didn't grow any in our garden this year, since last year's were so cute. that's what 2 14-hour days of work in one week will do for you!..ugh! i did set my mind to making sugar cookies and/or cinnamon rolls this next week.

I might have to borrow your idea. I just got a new VT route and those cute pumpkins would be a perfect thing to drop off before the end of the month.
