Typically we would have brought in 35 pound pumpkins from Payless, sometimes dried corn, maybe a hay bale. The standard things.
This year we’ve done things a little differently.
These pumpkins are MUCH lighter in weight (for us old people, you know), they fold flat for storage, and can be reused.The tissue paper globe is fastened on a marshmallow roasting stick with two clothes pins
Sprayed the tissue paper with clear Krylon to make them waterproof
The globes are each fitted with a short length of 12V LED tape.Each of the five tissue-paper pumpkins is Tee Tapped to a 12V 18AwG feeder. (Normally hidden behind the brick edgers.)Steve and Janet gifted us the flowers last spring. The flowers have bloomed and bloomed all season! Thank you!
