Gold Fever

I have been taking a can of gold metallic spray paint to everything.

It doesn't have any anything to do with the price of gold, but I want my Thanksgiving to have some sparkle. I got the acorns at our local park.  They came in two pieces and I just glued the caps back on after I painted them.


Leaves even look good spray painted gold.  Pick a fresh leaf off the tree, or if they won't be around that long, you can press them and then spray paint them.  I talk about pressing leaves to keep here.

 And, especially pumpkins look fantastic painted gold.  I talked about how to gild a pumpkin with a can of spray paint here.

 So try a little bling in your Thanksgiving tablescape.  

I will link to these fabulous blogs.  Go and visit them.

 I will join Joni at Red Couch Recipes for the Thanksgiving Challenge.  I will put at the end of every post till Thanksgiving what I am thankful for.  I am thankful for the farmers who work so hard in the fields and get food on our tables.  With Illinois being in the corn belt, the image below has been a familiar one this fall.
