Me either..but I thought it sounded good. Here is an undressed pumpkin that I dressed up with some fun Pink Paislee paper. I had this rooster clock that I was tired of and the clock part was broke so I altered it and made it a "witching hour" clock...it is cursed to stay at midnight forever. Scared ya didn't I??? I wanted to make a "Witching Hour" or Halloween title on it but ran out of letters. What do you think...leave it or add it? A few more Fall props on my entry table. I also showed a close-up of my 1950's insect book....I would love to make some copies of the insects inside.....cool for Halloween ey? OHHHHH and just so ya know...those keys are to the witch's cottage. Yep the MOD Podge fumes have got to me. I noticed it is my 100th post.....never thought that would happen...flake that I am....lol. I would love to know if you would be interested in a pumpkin man give-away? Soooo peeps let me know! Happy Hump Day! xoxo, cherry

OH! I love the clock! And the scrabble tiles are a great idea. I have some from the Deluxe Scrabble set that are maroon! They look very fallish! I might have to dig those out!
Those are just adorable! You are so creative...it makes me want to decorate more for fall.
Oooh, I love that pumpkin! You are just so creative! I also love your scrabble tile ideas!
Laura :)
YES, YES, YES for a pumpkin man giveaway. How many times can I enter? Can I just buy the little dude from you?
I love the pumpkin you covered. I just saw one similar in a high end shop. I didn't look at the price though. I don't bother in those shops, I just get the ideas and run.
The clock is totally cute too. :-)
Cute ideas. Love the bewitching clock. :-)
1. YES! Witching hour! I seriously love that idea.
2. I also seriously love that lil' chair with the key
3. I tried to find the pumpkins at the dolor tree today, with no luck. boo!
Cherry, You have outdone yourself again!! And yes to the giveaway...only if you pick me!!
Elise
That clock is great! :) I think it's clever how you used the Scrabble tiles, too! I love all of your fall decorations! :) ( And your white pumpkins...where is everyone finding these white pumpkins?)
Have a peaceful night! :)
That clock is so neat - and the scrabble tiles, so creative. :)
Oh, My, Goodness!!! I love the clock. What a fabulous idea. Totally works with the witching hour saying. I want one.
I only want you to do a giveaway-if I win. Can you rig that? I would so do that for you! After all-you are the boss!
I love the witching hour clock! Holy crap it is cutest thing ever. you know me and clocks though-I am a freak, so this one hit me right in the heart! I have an extra clock hanging around that needs a little lovin-this is so happeining to it! Lucky Clock!
ps-have you ever seen the blog-curioussof.blogspot.com? I can't remember where I saw the link-but it is so great! Go there and see all the incredible halloween decor! I love the witch legs! I know that you will get a good giggle out of them as well!
Cherry, you are just so good you make me sick! J/K! Your arrangements always look fabulous! Great job on everything!
Oh, how you inspire us! I would LOVE one of your little pumpkin men! He is darling!! Lori
Look at you being the Halloween mod podge queen! Those projects are sooooo cute! That's a great way to repurpose a broken clock.
I love your craftiness. That clock is amazing.. and so is the pumpkin.. I love love love it all.
Becky
Your house is looking quite festive! The clock is great. You have the best ideas. Halloween is so fun when you still have kids at home....Mimi
Love the pumpkin. Love the clock. Oh, how I wish we had Halloween over here. Most people regard it as THAT American holiday. I did rebel last year though and carve a pumpkin to put on our top step. I think I'll have to do it again, maybe with some of the other lucious ideas I see in Blogland. Hubby won't understand but then he doesn't understand most of the things I do. :)
Congratulations Cherry...100 posts!
I need to get my hand on some scrap book papers fast! Look at all the projects you have for me to do. Do you order them online?
okay Im back..do you have some favorite online sources. Maybe youve blogged about them before.
If you have post a link...so I can go where you go. lol!
Im happy to see you again too.
Bugs about to turn 5 and she eats my flowers!
love the clock - what a great idea! your fall decorations are wonderful. thanks for all the inspiration you give to blogland!
~nicole
I absolutely love that witch clock! I'm assuming you made it somehow? I wish I was creative like that!
Okay...where do I begin...there are so many little details in your decor that makes it so wonderful. I love the ribbon and tag you put on your pumpkin...the little black chair...love it all!
-Sandy Toes
p.s. the Scrabble tiles are gReAt!
Well...I just thought I was finished with my Halloween projects! I love the pumpkin with the buttons and the witch clock is perfect! I am off to goodwill to look for a broken clock today!
I would love the chance to win a pumpkin man, too!
So festive and full of fall fun!!! I have got to break out my Scrabble tiles. LOVE that idea!!
that's it... you have inspired me with these gorgeous pictures! gotta go decorate!
oooh, i just love it around here!! so much to see and be inspired by.
thank you for stopping by amuse-bouche.
lelly
that clock is amazing, with all of the little details - I think it's great
OMG!!!! You are a crafter after my own heart. I love scrapbook paper but do not scrapbook....so this is perfect for me. You have such great ideas. From now on I am going to buy every paper that I remotely like and then look at everything else and think "Can I throw some paper on that?" That's the only way I can think completely out of the box. OH I hope I win! I think the clock is genius. (That's my weekend project) yeah I have something fun to do. I have to ask where do you get your great papers? I live in a one horse town and Hobby Lobby is 30min. away. Please say HobbyLobby. Thanks Cherry..you are awesome!Smiles, Paula
Happy 100th post!! I would be very interested in a giveaway! :)
I love all your "props". Everything looks so great!! Love your clock and pumpkin!
That jack-o-lantern is adorable! You used scrapbook paper?
And I love the witchy clock. How clever!
It's me again. Would you do a clock tutorial? I love those! We are having a party for my 10yr. old for Halloween and it's the first year we are going scary. I would love to know how you age your papers, sand the edges just so so etc. You would be a total rock star! Smiles and begging and pleading, Paula
INTERESTED?? I'd trade my first born for a pumpkin man from you! Okay... nobody call CPS on me. I love what you did with that clock. What a great idea! I have two broken clocks sitting here in a cabinet next to me. Oh me wheels they are a turning! :o) You are so creative. Do you have an etsy shop? You should.
Everything looks so nice. I really like all that you have done in these photos.
Thanks for some great ideas!

Thanks for visiting my blog, and I did add another comment to the Nester saying Halloween decorations don't count :) I wish I could do stuff like that, but it would scare my 4 girls to pieces. :) Love your blog!
I would leave the clock like it is ....I like the subtleness of the message better.
All about the give a-way too .....bring on the pumpkins!
Thats a clever idea with the clock...so cute!! Love the paisley pumpkin...VERY nice!!!

Very clever ideas you came up with. Love the pumpkin! That clock is to "die" for. LOL I think you should keep the scrabble tiles.
I wish I could come up with things like you did!
Hugs,
Joanne
YES, YES, YES we want a pumpkin man giveaway....and I want to win!!! You make/create the CUTEST things!!! I just want to come over to your home and watch you create your magic!!!

Hi Cherry,
You are so clever...I just love your ideas!
Loved ♥ the clock -- Thanks for visiting -- I had already seen your clock when I looked at kari's and Kitja's blog about fav placed at home -- Everythignis lovely - and I love your blog _ KAthy - GA
LOVE, LOvE the clock! Great fall ideas!
Manuela
Love, love, love the clocks! And that pumkin that you covered. The juxtaposition of the fancy paper and the funny pumkin is great! Thanks so much for visiting my blog, I'm adding you to my blogroll. ~Becky~
Hello, Thankyou so much for your support and lovely comment left on Debbies blog. You are all so kind and I appreciate the time you took to pop over to my friends blog to leave a message. Hopefully the person concerned will get bored... Your decorations are fantastic, I especially like the pumpkin and the witches clock. You are very talented with great ideas. Thanks again, Take Care, Mandy X
Ok, this is going to sound kind of stupid considering you've got all those marvelous pictures of very cool Halloween things, and what do I want to comment on? That book about insects. Haha.
Lately I've been a little obsessed with trying to make, for lack of a better adjective, Victorian Curiosity Domes. You know how Victorians would set up a little still life and then encase it in a glass cloche? So I'm trying to make a natural history one with bugs. Normally bugs make me want to run the other way, but my daughter's boyfriend brought me the most beautiful metallic green beetle he found in the park, and that set off the obsession. I thought it would be a very cool thing to put in a Halloween display ... And an insect book like your is just what I need to set near the dome when I finish with it. I'm gonna have to hit the used book stores! Thanks for the inspiration.
-Sue
I say add the witching hour. Love the idea!
Your creativity is amazing.....I always enjoy coming over to see your things!!
The clock with the witch is my favorite...so unique!
Lisa
Wow...have you been busy! My favorite is that witch clock...what a super cute idea. Those scrabble pieces were cool looking too.
That little chair with the key is soooo adorable. I love the pumpkin the way you fixed it. You are so talented in an amazing way!!! Love it!
Blessings
Debbie
too cute but i just adore the dog picture!

Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog! I adore yours too! And feel now I must do MORE around the house, glad the weekend is here. I especially love the word "FALL" will have to do that!!
amy
HaHa.....Rofl...at your not answered joke question. Yeah...let's do a give-away!
Hi Cherry,
I LOVE coming over to your site because there's always the BEST eye candy here!
The covered pumpkin and the witch clock are to die for.
On a funny note...The 1st photo looks like the pumpkin was used to squish a giant mosquito. : )
M.L.
Your house is just too adrably ghoulish. The pumpkin is just too darn cute but my fav. item is the clock - very clever that yo left it set at midnight. :-)
I am all about giveaways-- especially if you give something away to me!! :)
As always-- CUTE stuff.
I love, love the witching hour clock just as it is. It is so cool for Halloween. I also looked at your other latest posts, and your creative space is wonderful and so is the rest of your Fall decorating. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Cherry :)
Of course I'd be interested in a pumpkin man giveaway! He's so cute, who wouldn't want one?? :)
I'm soooo envious of all your vignettes! They look darling :)
I hope this house sells before Christmas or it'll be REALLY depressing.
hugs,
rue
Soo stinkin' cute! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pumpkin! Please do a giveaway or at least a tutorial. :)

Oh what great ideas. I showed the pumpkin to my three year old her response " I looooove that punkin it's so cute. She's a smart girl. Keep up all the lovely posts.
Debbie in Louisiana
Very clever, love all your punkins and decorations.
And thanks for the visit.
Blessings, Virginia
Love the clock! Happy 100!
Hello my friend!
I can't remember where I got my metal leaves. I've had them for YEARS! I think they came from a little craft store. Sorry! I'm not much help here.
Have a delightful weekend.
thanks so much for stopping by my blog! I absolutly love the wooden pumpkins! Did you decopauge fabric onto them? have a fantastic weekend!
~Melissa

Crikey, look at all your comments! This was a fun post to read and look at! Like how you dressed the pumpkin! Thanks for visiting me. Will visit you again! Rachaelxo
Oh my god Cherry! LOOK at that number of comments. I am so behind compared to you for Halloween. What I love most is the unexpected use of white ironstone. Love that with the white pumpkin. And yes, it is most necessary to have a pumpkin man giveaway! And don't worry, I completely zoned on my 1ooth post. Will have to remember my 1 year anniversary instead.
Hugs,
Lisa & Alfie

Hi Cherry,
Thanks for visiting my blog! I love the B&W pic of your dog in the vignette with the pitchers and berries and the pumpkin under the cloche/bell jar. Really really pretty. I'm glad I discovered your blog and will be back again to visit more.

Ahhhh...you have my mind reeling!! I plan to decorate for fall this weekend and you have inspired me even more. Just beautiful.
I just found your blog today and would love to link it to mine -- do you mind?
Have I mentioned before that you should be getting paid for this?!?! You've got talent!!!!
You have so inspired me to start decorating for Fall.
Thank you.
Melissa
You are exploding with creative energy on this post!!!
I LOVE that Witching Hour clock!!!! and the Paislee Punkin---and the Insect book!
Yes, indeedy, I think you need a Pumkin Man Give-away!
I'm having a Pink Sat. Starter Kit giveaway, but you must sign up tomorrow (or tonight!). ;-) You might enjoy the Pink Imitation Crocs (or the $6.00 in cold hard cash!). Have a great weekend--inspirational post! Dana

Everything is ADORABLE! What a fun, inspiring post!
Please come here and do my fall for me!
xo,
Kim
I am so HAPPY to have happened upon your wonderful blog! Everything you have done for fall is just GORGEOUS but my fav? is definitely the pumpkin with paper and the clock. What brilliant ideas. I now wish that I had a clock lying around that I didn't want.
Where did you find the witch with the hour and minute hands or did you just glue her on top of the existing ones?
I think a title would be wonderful on the clock and a giveway would be super!
Sheeesh....how do you do it??? Can I rent your brain for a few months?
I love the decorations! They're just beautiful!
Here via Chris (Just a Girl) and I am amazed at how talented you are! What a gorgeous blog!! I'll be back!
