I am working on some Halloween decorating and projects and whipped up a couple of fun faux pumpkins this weekend. Not showing the whole table on which these are displayed yet since that will be part of an upcoming sponsored post!
This is an easy peasy project so I didn't take a lot of step by step pics.
Supplies and Steps:
- Faux pumpkin (small) ($9.99 ea less 60% sale)
- Glittered leaf bush ($4.99 lesss 50%)
- Glass Knob (Clearance $.50...yes fifty cents)
- Scrapbook Paper in gold metallic ($.10 on one of their 10 for $1 sales)
- Paper Roses (stash)
- Hot glue / glue gun
Faux white pumpkin, glitter leaf bush, glass knob, messy desk
Make 6 rolled paper roses from the gold scrapbook paper, set aside. I used 3 per pumpkin. Pinterest has tons of tutorials on how to make these.
Cut 6 leaves per pumpkin from the bush, hot glue to the pumpkin making a kind of crown. I did 4 (North, South, East, West) and then layered the remaining 2.

I thought these glass knobs were awesome at $1.50 when they first came in but wasn't sure what I'd use them for. When I saw them for $.50 I bought several. I'd come up with something!
Start a hole in the pumpkin stem and then screw in the glass knob. Hot glue three of the rolled roses to the stem and fill in any spaces with the paper roses and voila.
