Last year we tried (and failed 😅) to make giant pumpkin arches over our driveway, but the buckets made it way too heavy and it all came tumbling down! So this year, we reused those same pumpkin buckets but placed them at the base of each light-up arch instead, and it worked perfectly! 🎃🖤 It was way easier, less time-consuming, and still gives that fun, over-the-top holiday vibe we love. If you love festive DIYs and frugal holiday fun, you’re in the right place! make sure to follow @makingfrug
