Often my husband will find old barn wood or when he's out in the mountains. When he finds interesting pieces, he'll bring them home. I have not been very good at making things from this old wood. It's something I need to work on.
As I was making my painted wood pumpkins, I decided to cut out a few pumpkins from a piece of old wood. I'm loving the character that the imperfections bring to the pumpkins.

This is really one of the easiest projects I've done in a while. As long as you have some old wood and a saw, you can make a few of these pumpkins in no time.
If you don't have a saw, make friends with someone who does!
