Upcycled Dollar Tree Shabby Chic Pumpkin
Fall is my favorite season for decorating my home. I love transforming my normal everyday decor into fun, festive – fall designs. However, decorating my home can be so expensive!

I usually purchase a few pumpkins in late October/early November and keep it as decor…
