Our easy Fleur-di-Lis Lantern.
This was our 2 years ago – Lantern.
I did it like in 5 minutes before we went to all our neighbors for candy to use to decorate our Candy Christmas village.
(Okay, we ate some of it, but most of it went to the Candy Christmas Village.)
I poked holes in the top so lights would shine through. It was so simple to do especially since I had never done anything like this before.
(My hubby forbids me to use sharp objects due to my many trips to the E.R. – I just used a little knife and a printed a fleur di lis printout to trace on pumpkin.)
Here is my Christian view on Halloween, in case you were wondering.
It might not be what you expect then again maybe it is.
I LOVE anything with Fleur-di-lis!!!
Blessings to you!!! You are loved!!!

Love it! I may have to get my own pumpkin so I can make this. I’m sure my kids woulnd’t be so excited about a fleur di lis pumpkin as I would. And yes, Michelle, I am from Louisiana. : )

Another homeschooling mom of three here!
I appreciate your Halloween perspective – we are constantly evaluating our response as well. I don’t think it is as black or white an issue as others.
Blessings,

Very cute. Your link on A Soft Place to Land isn’t right, there is an extra “L” in the address, so it won’t go through. FYI 🙂

Fun pumpkin. I am wondering if you happen to be from Louisiana. It seems that EVERYONE who loves that symbol is from there…including my husband!
