I love recycling containers when I can !
This one was so perfect for this pumpkin!
This was my empty jar of my Diamond Dust glitter it just was calling out to me and so a pumpkin it became! 😀🎃
Here's the supplies I used!
• A empty container
• Wood burning tool
• Dixie Belle Peacock
• Dixie Belle Florida Orange
• assorted flowers of your choosing
• moss
• ink
I love this wood burning tool for so many projects but today it was perfect to cut out my pumpkin face since the jar was pretty thick I didn't want to use anything else to cut it ...
I drew a face outline to help guide me as I cut it out .
It worked perfectly! Just be very careful using a Wood burning tool because it gets pretty hot and use it in a ventilated area.
I took my Peacock paint and painted the outside .
Once dried I painted the inside orange!
Remember you can use whatever shades of paint you like!
I used this adorable glass knob for the stem but you can use anything you want! ( a branch, a wine cork, or a dried pumpkin stem)
I love how this is looking!
So I took my ink and rubbed it all over my pumpkin for that grunge look!
I love that but if you don't like it just skip this step!
It's so cute!
I didn't have any moss on hand so I decided to make some filled I could use by cutting strips of paper!😀
This worked perfectly!
I scrunched it up and I had my moss for the top of my pumpkin I really love that look!
Also less messy! 😂
I then glue it on so cute!
I proceeded to embellished the top with what I had on hand !
Little pumpkins and sweet little flowers !
A few dried wildflowers to these are from my yard!
I popped in some lights and there you have it!
So adorable and really budget friendly!
I hope you give this super easy SUPER cute pumpkin a try!
