Hi Lil Moon readers!  
I am therefore excited to move hither amongst yous for the Great Pumpkin event!  My cry is Whitney too I spider web log over at Home Delicious.  I exceed away on myself busy amongst my three kids , instruction pianoforte , blogging too loving every infinitesimal of it.


I desire to give thank yous Kristyn for having me today , because I had a BLAST coming upward amongst this pumpkin project!  I tried to brand something that was a) fun to create amongst the kids too b) cute to receive got approximately the house.

Sugar String Pumpkins!



Many of yous may receive got downwards these earlier at Easter , but I decided to accept them too spin them into Halloween decor.

To starting fourth dimension off , yous volition involve balloons (I got mine from the dollar store) , string , saccharide too water. 


In a microwave-safe bowl , position 1 loving cup of H2O too estrus it inwards the microwave.  Don't boil it , but it does involve to move hot.  Then add together ii cups of sugar.  If yous purpose less H2O , that is OK , but brand certain yous are using a 2:1 sugar/water ratio.  Stir that saccharide inwards the H2O until it is dissolved , too therefore allow it cool.  You may divulge I added a lilliputian nutrient coloring to the H2O to run across if it would dye the string.  It didn't.  lol.


The side past times side pace is to roll the string approximately the balloon.  Note:  We did this OUTSIDE!  It gets MESSY! We tried this a few dissimilar ways , but the best was to roll the string all approximately the balloon piece they are both dry.  Just roll wrap wrap.


Then , scroll it approximately inwards the saccharide H2O bowl.  Roll too spread amongst your hands until the entire affair is wet. All the string must move moisture for this to work.

Hang it exterior to dry.  Note to Arizona moms:  If it is likewise hot exterior , the balloon volition deflate.  We learned the difficult agency too they looked to a greater extent than similar spider sacks than pumpkins.  I dried a few inwards the identify over the sink.  These volition drip , though.  So brand certain it is over something yous tin flame hose off or build clean easily.
When they are dry out (the side past times side day) , popular the balloon too remove.  You volition receive got the cutest pumpkin shape!
Embellish amongst ribbon or whatever yous like.  I used a twig for a stalk on i , too an actual pumpkin stalk for the other.  
As yous tin flame run across , the to a greater extent than string the better!  The dark i is a lilliputian sad!

But it looks bully amongst your autumn decor!  So come upward on over to view me at Home Delicious too banking concern tally out some of my other fun projects!
