20 Days of Halloween Projects - Day 17

Day 17

Making these pumpkins for your last minute Halloween decorations or even for your fall Thanksgiving decor can't be that difficult.  This next picture doesn't have a source, but I have a pretty good idea it was simple.  Take dryer vent tubing from your local hardware store, and bend it into a circle (then cut the length you want).  I would hot glue it closed.  Then spray paint either orange or cream, I personally love the cream!  You will need some spanish moss to glue to the top, and either a larger branch or a cinnamon stick for the stem.  And viola...You've got a pumpkin!  Cute & simple.

Oh my goodness.... so cute! We don't have spanish moss around here but I am sure I can find something.

Ashley, head over to your local walmart and you should be able to find some in the craft/floral section for a couple bucks. :)
