“ One of the many advantages of living in the country is accession to natural items to make holiday décor . It begins in fall with autumn pumpkin , gourds and pipeline which are then added to Christmas origination . I come up it difficult to give up on the pumpkins and gourds as their beauty adds holiday cheerfulness . Over the retiring few years I have dried and cleaned birdhouse gourds to practice again as well as ventured into the woodwind to cumulate pipeline and pinecones to expend in various projects . In the following photo , all natural token include greens are from our property . The gourd were also grown on the property and the pumpkin vine were purchased from nearby farms . ”
