Flower Covered Pumpkins

Fall is in the air! It is actually cool here this morning. Wet and dreary! Not the part of Fall I like!
I am much more about the colors with the sun shining and a blue sky!


If you saw my post yesterday I made a Pumpkin Topiary. Using the same pumpkins I created a floral one. 

I think you are going to like these! They are simple and affordable. Let's get ready to start.


Materials


1 pumpkin (dollar store)
7 sprigs of silk flowers (dollar store) I used small mums
hot glue
pumpkin stem or something like one

 

start with your pumpkin and silks

pull flower heads off stem and push into pumpkin use glue to secure

I alternated two colors of flowers yellow and orange after I started I decided to make rows of the yellow to look like the lines of the pumpkin and then filled in with the orange

I then turned it upside down to finish the bottom

This is how it should look when done! PROBLEM: Stem is hidden!

You can use an old pumpkin stem to attach or a twig.

I used this.....

I know I am weird!

 

I cut the stem of a red pepper!

Hot glued it to the top. I couldn't find any pumpkins yet so this had to do.

I like the look!

 

Another item for my mantle! This would make a great centerpiece too!

 

Don't you just love the stem!

Pin It

Another inexpensive beauty! Can be enjoyed year after year!
