I love Fall and I especially love creating Pumpkins from unique items!
You can never have too many of them ! 😀
This is a super fun and easy project!
I was inspired by Brooke with Re-fabbed on this project!
Here is what you will need ! ⬇️
• Aluminum cookie trays I picked up at Dollar General 2 for a Dollar.
• ‘Embroidery Hoop whatever sign you want .
• Fall Scrapbook paper
• Moss
• Canvas
• Stem for your pumpkin…
I love drying stems from pass real pumpkins…
Also dried pepper stems work great too!’
• Glue Gun
I cut the edge off…. Be carful not to cut yourself on the sharp edges.
I then traced out my pieces using the embroidery hoop .
I then sandwiched everything together! With the embroidery hoop!
Once I had it in the hoop… I just gave it a light wash of Orange…. I actually used Spiced Pumpkin I love this color for Fall … You can get it here on Amazon or you can see if Walmart has it …. But really any orange will work ….
For my Stem I used a Pepper Stem I dried out a few weeks prior and gave it a light coat of green paint.
You can use a Branch, or even a Wine Cork for a stem whatever suits you!
I then added a little Spanish Moss!
This is what you should have so far !
I then added a little greenery… I believe I bought this greenery at Hobby Lobby a while ago…
You can also check on Amazon here’s a link for some I have gotten before…⬇️
Also Walmart, Family Dollar, or Dollar General has greenery as well.
I then added a little Raffia!
I love making things look Rusty, Grungy old…
So I used my favorite short cut to make that happen!
Cinnamon and some Hair Spray…. I sprayed my pumpkin with Hair Spray while still wet I sprinkled some cinnamon…
I let it dry then I gave it a coat of sealer you can use brush on or spray sealer!
Here are my favorites to use ⬇️
I took my canvas and lightly gave it a coat of orange paint.. It was very light more water then paint…
Once dried I used my Brunt Umber paint ( Brown) to give it a little distressing to the canvas ….
These are the colors I used … Use what ever brown and orange you have on hand…
Then I hot glued my pumpkin to the canvas.
I took an old tooth brush and speckled some Brown paint on my canvas!
I love the look it gives it !
Hold on to a few old tooth brushes for this purpose !
I love glitter so I sprayed my moss with a little sealer and sprinkled some on !
This is a copper color glitter that I am using.
You don’t have to do this but why wouldn’t you!
There you have it so darn pretty!
I love ❤️ how adorable this Simple little pumpkin with an embroidery hoop turned out!
