Paint pumpkins with white birch paint, then press brass studs into patterns. Finish by gluing jute twine around stems for a rustic touch.

You'll need

Americana Multi-Surface Paint {white birch}

Pumpkins from Dollar Tree

Brass Studs from Hobby Lobby

Foam Brush

Jute Twine

Glue Gun

Directions

Apply a couple of coats of Americana Multi-Surface Paint in white birch to your Dollar Tree pumpkins using a foam brush, allowing each coat to dry fully before adding the next.

Decide on a stud pattern and press brass studs from Hobby Lobby into the pumpkin flesh—they go in like thumbtacks and can be removed easily for reuse.

Use a glue gun to attach jute twine around the stems or anywhere else you like.
