Crystal Kikel
Supply list:
- 2 Pumpkin Wreath forms
- Zip ties
- 1 yard of Fabric
- Floral rope
- Flowers / Greenery
- Floral wire
- Ribbon for a bow
- Glue gun / glue sticks
- Scissors
- Clothes pins
Directions:
- Cut the fabric to fit over the pumpkin form.
- Lay the first pumpkin wreath flat, place the fabric over the wreath, place the second pumpkin wreath over the first. Tighten fabric, use the clothes pins to keep the fabric in place while you zip tie the 2 pumpkins together.
- Cut a very small hole into the fabric and run the zip tie through both wreaths.
- After you have the wreaths, zip tied together glue gun the fabric tight around the inside of the wreath, cut any extra fabric off.
- I like my pumpkin stem longer, so I wrapped the floral wire around the stem (you make it as high as you like).
- Wrap the floral rope around the stem base and glue gun into place. Glue gun your bow and flowers on. (Use whatever flowers or green you like.)
- To finish the wreath, attach some floral wire to the back so that you can hang the wreath up.
Not just for the fall, make them anyway you like!
