                                     So now I implore you all, go make yourself a pumpkin! 

I know, like most of my blog posts, this sounds a bit silly and to this I say yes and be quiet I'm cool. The one thing I've yet to tackle is crafting my own pumpkin. Oddly enough, I have done a few Christmas ornaments for my family and maybe an odd Thanksgiving spread but I have never made my own pumpkin. 

I think the better question is, Why am I telling you all this?  Easy: CHALLENGE.

The best way to keep your mind going, spread Joy, reduce stress and anxiety are things likes crafts. What a great way to do this than challenging yourself to try something new. I make a lot of crafts here as my job, and sometimes those projects translate to my home.

The best we can do is challenge ourselves and right now, pumpkins are the thing I've latched on to.

How about you?

Have you made a pumpkin? Or two or ten?
