Jute wrapped pumpkins for Fall.
While Hurricane Irene was blowing outside I fired up the glue gun for some Fall crafts,
wrapping up all my styrofoam pumpkins and gourds with jute and twine.
Eventually these will make it to the mantel for Fall.
Here's how I made the pumpkins:
1. Gather your old styrofoam pumpkins and gourds, twine, and hot glue gun:
2. Pull out the plastic stems and discard.
3. Start wrapping the pumpkins either at the base or top using hot glue:
4. Keep wrapping and gluing, no worries about those 'hot glue strings' hanging as they only enhance the nature of the twine.
5. For the stems find a stick and slice short stems with an angled top:
6. Hot glue the stem into place with some woody curly bits:
7. I also used thinner jute on a few for contrast:
Easy project using supplies I already had on hand to update my Fall decor.
