Botanical Pumpkins

A great project to do over the half-term holidays for Halloween. I made these in a few hours with my daughter. A different way to display your pumpkins!

You will need:

• Pumpkins.

• Mod Podge Glue.

• A selection of dried flowers (you can use your own or you can buy them from a craft store).

• Tweezers.

• Small brushes.

A selection of dried flowers

Step 1:

Select some pumpkins. I used a large pumpkin and two smaller pumpkins.

Step 2:

Think about the positioning of the flowers. Brush some glue on the area of the pumpkin where you want the flower to go. Attach the flower with your tweezers. Press down gently. It is best to select flowers and leaves without thick stems as they stick more easily.

Step 3:

Add a fine layer of glue on top of the flower. This will secure the flowers in place and seal them.

Step 4:

Continue to add the pressed flowers until you are happy with the overall design.
