If your Pinterest feed has looked a little different this year, you are not imagining it. The classic triangle eyed jack o lantern is taking a back seat to something much sillier: pumpkins with big goofy teeth, braces, tongues sticking out, and even tiny articulated arms and legs made from toothpicks. Pumpkin carving and stencils…
If your Pinterest feed has looked like mine lately, you have seen it too: tiny embroidery hoops everywhere.
