I wanted to share one more fall DIY. I’m sharing it because I found another way to make these adorable little pumpkins.
Here’s the link to the original link I followed. I made one this way, but then I decided I wasn’t fond of the final shape. So here’s the original.
What I did differently was to wrap about 4 strands of yarn at a time. Instead of leaving them the pumpkins in a barrel shape, I kind of “crushed” the tops and bottoms in towards the center, and then inserted the stem. Aren’t they cute?
There was another video that showed cutting notches into the top and bottom of the cut rolls then wrapping the yarn through the notches. That took a ridiculously long time.
I didn’t use any glue.
God bless, and have a great day.
