This Halloween project uses three artificial pumpkins, two outdoor pots, Spanish moss, black vinyl, and acrylic paint. Create a stable platform inside each pot, then stack two pumpkins after removing their stems. Antique the pots with paint, glue the pumpkins together, add moss, and finish with a black vinyl tree image for a hauntingly elegant display.
