Halloween pumpkin decorating ideas from a pretty great source

When Michaels Crafts puts out a call for bloggers to create the coolest, craftiest pumpkin decorating ideas you know they're going to come back with something awesome.

 

On the brand-new (as of last night!) Michaels Blog called The Glue String--which will no doubt be a Pinterest pinner's mecca--I was so excited to see this roundup of gorgeous DIY Halloween Pumpkin decorating ideas.

Here, just a few favorites, in part because they don't require carving. I am a sheepish Halloween pumpkin carver, what can I say.
