I was inspired by Sarah at Alderberry Hill to create a fabric covered pumpkin. She has a great tutorial that you can follow by clicking on her link. I had already gotten a couple pumpkins at the dollar store, so I was excited to try it out.
Then I added some simple buttons around the top to give it a little something extra. It was an inexpensive project costing around $4.00 with the pumpkin, buttons and fabric all together. Thank you for stopping by!

ReplyDeleteYour pumpkin turned out really cool! My weekly linky party--One Creative Weekend--has gone spooky this week in honor of my thirteenth party. If you haven’t already, I hope you’ll visit "One Creative Weekend" on OneCreativeMommy.com (open every Fri-Wed) and link up this idea and anything else you’d like to share. (You can include non-Halloween posts as well, but feel free to link up as many Halloween-themed posts as you like.)

These are so cute and I love how they match your blog! I have yet to do anything chevron in my house (I'm a slacker) but this would be a great start.

Too cute! I thought this was a stuffed pumpkin and I am so glad it's fabric and glue so I can make one. I don't sew, but I'm wack with glue!
