Harvest Pumpkin Tutorial

We had a lot of requests come in wanting to know how to make the set of pumpkins I created for the Happy Harvest release so I put together a little picture tutorial so you can make a set for yourself. 


Supplies:
  • Clay pots in 3 different sizes - I went with the smallest one I could find and went up one size from there for the next two
  • i-bond or other fast drying adhesive
  • Petal Roller
  • 1 - 2 sheets of  Fall into Fun pattern paper
  • 1 sheet Dancing Leaves pattern paper for the curly stems
  • 1 sheet cardstock - I used Bazzill Navel
  • Happy Harvest Die Cuts
  • Twine
  • Circle cutter
Here's how to make them (click to enlarge or right click to download and save to your computer):

I am planning to use mine as candy dishes (wrapped candy) on the table by my front door or maybe I will put some pretty stones in it and use them as table decorations. What would you use them for?
