inspired = gilded pumkins

happy friday, everyone
i've found a gorgeous decoration inspiration to share

i'm always looking out for inventive ways to decorate
and found this great idea on martha stewart online
the americans seem to go in for pumpkins and squash decoration in a big way
especially for halloween and thanksgiving
but i'd like to try gilded pumpkins as my decoration of choice for christmas
do you think it'll work?

i'll update you with my version in december

found = carved wooden birds

there's something about wood that is so simple and tactile
like wind and water is a primative thing for me
i feel calmer around wood
when that most natural of materials is linked with another love, birds, for me, that's the perfect combination
