Here’s another fun and easy project you just have to create! 😀🎃🍁

You don’t really need a lot of items to create this cutie!

Recycle those empty pill bottles even empty vitamin bottles will work too!

I absolutely love being able to create something special with leftover items and bring them back to life as something totally different and simply beautiful!

This little Pumpkin with a crocheted witches hat is a perfect example!

I’m sure you have all you need on hand so let’s get to crafting!



Supplies You’ll Need:

  • Empty bottle

  • Scissors

  • Hot glue

  • Crocheted witches hat

  • Fall embellishments of your choice

  • Paint I used orange, black, green and white some are acrylic and some chalk

  • Grunge coffee stained sock or any material you want to use to cover your bottle

  • Copper fine Glitter

  • Dixie Belle brown wax

  • Clear spray sealer

Once you gather your items you are ready to start .

I crocheted this little hat .

It’s pretty easy .

Make a magic ring sc 5 into ring , then just work each round .

I increased 2sc in each stitch on the second row

Then I alternated 1 sc then 2 sc in each stitch for row 3

I didn’t increase any more after row 3

I kept crocheting it until it was the length I wanted.

Then for the rim I did the popcorn stitch ( crochet 4 dc in each stitch (but leave the last loop of each dc on crochet hook then pull yarn through all the loops) to create the puff.

I did two rows and finished it off.

I will drop a link if you decide you want to buy one already made by me .


Crocheted hat already made!



I took my sock and measured how much I needed.

I glued it on . I didn’t use the cap of the bottle I left that out .

I glued my cute little hat on using hot glue.

I drew my face on .


I painted the orange on but I did it pretty watered down so you could still see the color of the sock here and there.

I painted his eyes and nose black .

I came back in with some green for the eyes.

I also added some lashes.

I painted his tooth white. I added some accents of white to the eyes and nose. I then took my old toothbrush and speckled some watered down white all over .

I just love how it’s coming out!

I took my Brown wax and gave it a little grunge touches here and there!

I also did a little on the hat!

I used my Reindeer moss and added some to the hat.

So cute!

I had this bell garland and thought a little piece swirled around the hat added that perfect touch!

Here’s the embellishments I used on my hat!

I love those little pumpkins!

So darn cute!

I used my fine copper glitter and sprayed a little sealer on the hat and created that whimsical glitter look that I love so much !

He is just so whimsical! I just love him so much !
