I have found some wonderful local crafters who will be providing me with fun goods to sell this year at The Pumpkin Ranch. Expect to see a great variety of painted pumpkins and gourds as well as sweet gift and home decor items. I am very excited about these buckets that come in a variety of sizes. They can be used instead of a gift bag, they are great organizers or decorative pieces. I love anything that looks good and is functional!
