Pumpkin Basket

Apparently I really did find my inner Martha. After making my homemade pumpkin puree, I had this wonderful 1/2 of pumpkin shell-I baked the pumpkin. It is easier and then you end up this this cool thing. So I took the twine I used for the pumpkin bird feeders, used a screwdriver to poke to holes on opposites sides of the pumpkin and braided the twine and tied it through the holes to make a little handle. SO CUTE! I think that I may end up giving it as a gift with some goodies in it. But for now it is decoration. I have buckeyes and leaves in it. Actually I think that this one is mine. I will have to make another pie if I am going to be giving any away.
