How to Make This Fall Pumpkin Centerpiece!
STEP 1:
We will start by cutting the top of the Pumpkin off. Set the 2 pieces aside for later. Next remove the the center section of the Fall Ornament leaving the beaded ring. Attach the beaded ring with hot glue to the bottom of the foam pumpkin.
STEP 2:
Paint the both parts of the pumpkin your desired color. For this project we are going with Antique White. Allow to dry for at least 1 hour.
STEP 3:
Trim down and glue Styrofoam disc inside the bottom portion of the pumpkin. Attach 9-12 Cattail Stems, 4-6 Cream Mum Blossom and 4-6 Gerber Daisies. Add a dab of hot glue to the end of the stems before inserting into the styrofoam for extra security.
STEP 4:
Next attach 3-6 Fern Stems and 4-6 Hop Blossom Stems. Top it off by attaching the top portion of the pumpkin with a skewer.
THE FINAL STEP:
The Finishing Touch!
Either as an addition to your Fall themed wedding or as a centerpiece on your Thanksgiving table this is your go to! Who knew something so stunning would be so easy and affordable to achieve.
