Because......
Decorating is endless.
Cooking never ends.
Gardens are always changing.
And best of all shopping goes on and on!

Hence the name,
Open Ended!

Plush Pumpkins!!

I recently went to Aunt Kathy's house and 
she had some of these little beauties!



They are called Plush Pumpkins and they are to die for!

Ever so often I come across something that just calls my name!
And after I saw hers I couldn't stop thinking about them.
Aunt Kathy is the Ultimate Shopping Diva!!
She always finds the best stuff.


So.....
after I asked for her blessing I went and purchased my very own.


Now I know some of you have already heard of these
rich colored velvet pumpkins made with real pumpkin stems.
They are stuffed with rice
{like a beanbag}
and you have to lift them from the bottom
so you don't pull off the stems.
{they are pretty weighty}


But this was the very first time I had ever seen them.
They are a "tad bit pricey" and there are others 
out there that are even more expensive!
  So turn them over and check the bottom for the "PP" logo!


Check out their site HERE!
If you live in the area they sell them HERE!
If not... you can order them online from HERE


Now, another alternative is to make your own.
My mom is going to try this.
She's pretty crafty so we'll see how hers turn out!


Hugs to you all,
