Gunne Sax Pumpkin

I decorated part of  the entry for fall today.   I decided to use some of the more "traditional " fall colors this year,,,,, and of course some pink.  
 First I gathered up some  fall flowers to make a centerpiece for the table that sits just inside the front door.
.

Then,  I made a pumpkin from left over fabric from  Gunne Sax dress that  I had used to make a vanity skirt in the guest bathroom.

I used the satin underskirt to make the pumpkin and  topped my pumpkin with part of the ruffled collar/

I arranged my pumpkin and fall flowers in a concrete bowl.   

The centerpiece sets on a mirror and also has a mirror behind it,  so the reflections show the centerpiece from the top.   front,  back,  side and even underneath!

I used the sash from my Gunne Sax dress to make a bow for the ceiling tile piece that I have on an easel.    I "framed" part of the dress just for fun.

So,  my $2 dress has now made a pumpkin,   dressed up my ceiling tile,  and I used the
 lacy overlay that was on the dress skirt to make a skirt for the bathroom vanity.

    I still have enough fabric left  to make a couple of smaller pumpkins to use in another vignette's in the entry way!
