Too bad I actually found the brown coffee filters (which I had no idea existed), but our Wal-Mart did not have the styrofoam wreath ring that I needed. Since it was 10 o'clock last night and I had no other options of stores and being crafty was on my mind, I opted for a styrofoam ball and figured that I would attempt a coffee filter floral-like ball. (Whatever you want to call it!)
Here's how it turned out...
And here's how I did it...
It's not my favorite, but it was pretty easy and I can't wait to make the wreath version of it when I get the styrofoam ring! I just don't have a great place to hang the ball version of it.
Meanwhile, Justin was working on this...
His pumpkin version of David Crowder, who looks like this:
I just can't compete with that talent!
But, I made these while I was waiting on Justin to finish:
That's about as good as my pumpkin carving gets!
Yesterday, our little family came up with this:
So now my house is a disaster and I'm off to clean!

I'll bet the wreath is going to look awesome. :-) Please share when you've finished!
Also, I love Justin's David Crowder pumpkin! Joe and I started a tradition of carving after we got married, and we like finding unique non-halloween things to carve. It's time-consuming (at least for me... I'm a perfectionist), but it's a lot of fun. :-) If you're interested, check out what we carved this year on Joe's blog: http://luhnlife.wordpress.com/2010/10/30/pumpkinstravaganza-2010/
