These little fabric covered pumpkins are just adorable. They are so tiny and cute!
All you need are dollar store pumpkins, fabric, Mod Podge and yarn or twine for the stem.
Here they are in they dollar store glory. I knew I could jazz these babies up into stylin’ Fall pumpkins.
I coated my strips of fabric with the Mod Podge and started laying the fabric on. There really is no rhyme or reason for the placement of the fabric but I did tend to lay them more vertical. I used my fingers and the paint brush to press the fabric down, it does get sticky!
They take a little while to dry but well worth the wait. If you put them outside they will dry a lot quicker.
I covered the stem with olive yarn but you could use bakers twine, burlap, raffia.
The possibilities are endless here, you could have turquoise, lime, bold patterns, tweed fabric, plaids!!!
Now I just have to find a home for them, but one things for sure, they will definitely fit in with my current Fall decor!
How are all your Fall projects coming along, have you started decorating yet?
I live in Canada, our Thanksgiving is on October 8th…less than a month away!
Absolutely adorable!

Oh gosh…I think these are adorable!! I may have to add those to my “must make” fall project list!!! It’s all in the fabric choice, for sure! I’m gonna dig in my scrap pile first! Thanks so much for sharing!!
