With the arrival of autumn, it was obviously time to pull out my autumn decorations. As much as I enjoy doing so, my decorations are getting a bit tired and old. I almost tossed these pumpkins I have. They have a bit of texture to them and some sparkle. However they have lost some sparkle over the years. In one more attempt to resurrect them this year, I came up with this.
Below are the supplies I used, plus black paint and a hot glue gun.
I used old wooden candle holders as my base and used finials from Lowe's and spray painted them black. As the paint dried, I worked on my pumpkin. I cut off the stem of each pumpking (it is just foam). With the burlap ribbon I hot glued a simple ruffle going around the top. Burlap ribbon is now everywhere but the best price is at Michael's or Hobby Lobby from what I have found. Once the paint was dry, I hot glued the finial to the top of the pumpkin and also glued the base of the pumpkin to the candle holder.
