Thankfully, I had my honey to help me!
Old, orange, faded pumpkins were given a "facelift" with some white, spray paint and an assortment of posts, for their frames, await them.
We used black electrical tape to secure the "arms" to their bodies, just about where their shoulders should be. Duct tape or rope would been a better option but, what we chose was just handy!
A, shorter, cut of wood was used on the "pumpkin daddy" for his "hips." He needed something to hold his pants up!
Waiting to "get dressed!"

Since the opening in the kids heads was smaller than the others my honey decided to go the easy route and mount their blocks on the outside.
They still look cute!
Oh, and don't make my mistake and use thin dowels for arms....I broke hers while getting her dressed!
Now, thank you for stopping by to check out my post and especially to my party hosts and new, friends for following!
Love, Hugs & Kisses
to my family and friends,
