Decks & Porches
By Jim Louis

I have to confess: I really hate pumpkin guts. Don’t get me wrong, I love the look of pumpkins on my front porch, but I just can’t deal with the goop. Instead, I’ll re-purpose materials lying around the house and other easy-to-find items to create gorgeous pumpkin lookalikes. Read on to learn how to create four DIY pumpkin decorations out of everything from bandanas to Mason jar lids. Bonus: they’ll last for years to come!

Tiffany Pratt is the Queen of Craft. Known for her signature colorful style, she’s brought her unique sense of design to HGTV Canada’s Buy It, Fix It, Sell It and Home to Win.
