I made a couple little orange sweater pumpkins and was looking for a way to display them. If you haven't seen my tutorial for sweater pumpkins, you can click here to find that. I decided to use them to enhance a shabby fall wreath.
To make the wreath, I started by wrapping a straw wreath form with strips of torn drop cloth, then added brown roses ribbon on one side. Some hot glue and a few pins secured the pumpkins.
The wreath was taking shape, but needed something else. A drop cloth flower was the perfect finishing touch! Would you be interested in learning how to make flowers like this? Let me know.
I hope you're enjoying your fall decorating and maybe even making some cute things for your house!
