12+ Easy Ideas for Pumpkins

OK…so am I the only one waiting for those big cardboard boxes of pumpkins to arrive at the stores? Where are they? There’s not a pumpkin in sight here…yet! So just in case you are in the same fix I am, I am sharing 12+ ways you can get your pumpkin on…without a single real pumpkin! There’s a little bit of everything… pillows, wreaths, planters, candles and more! And if you know me, it’s all easy to do! Who needs real pumpkins when this kind lasts from year to year? ;-)



Got an old sweater you are willing to sacrifice for the cause? Try my EASY SWEATER PUMPKINS! Or better yet...head to the thrift store!

You can also raid the thrift stores to create these super easy NO-SEW SHIRT PUMPKINS!

These EASY BURLAP PUMPKINS add texture to your fall decor!

Faux pumpkins are fun to dress up for fall…like my COUNTRY LIVING INSPIRED DECOUPAGE PUMPKINS.

And even an inexpensive trick-or-treat jack-o-lantern looks good as a BURLAP PUMPKIN PLANTER!

Don’t forget scrapbooking paper turned into PLEATED PAPER PUMPKINS…such a fun way to add a little fall pizzazz to a centerpiece!

I just raided my faux pumpkin stash and repurposed an old grapevine wreath form to create this POTTERY BARN INSPIRED PUMPKIN WREATH…so it was free!

I love pillows and I love pumpkins…so what’s better than a pumpkin pillow! I used the leftovers from my no-sew shirt pumpkins to create this PUMPKIN SHIRT PILLOW!

And I couldn’t resist giving this one a frenchy twist! It’s my linen and burlap VINTAGE FRENCH PUMPKIN PILLOW.

Miss Ozzie says not to forget that pumpkins play an important part in Halloween, too!

So I created this INTERCHANGEABLE FACE JACK-O-LANTERN PILLOW! My little grands love it! There’s even a pocket on the back to store the extra pieces!

I just couldn’t resist trying this one when I found a sheet of buggy craft paper! It’s my BLACK AND WHITE DECOUPAGE BUGGY PUMPKIN!

This was a fun project…with lots of fun patterns to choose from! It’s my EASY DUCT TAPE PUMPKINS!

And finally, when I saw this one, I had to give it a try! It’s my Country Living inspired JACK-O-LANTERN CANDLESTICKS! Hint...we had to drink a lot of apple juice for this one! ;-)

And that's it...but I'm still looking for those real pumpkins. A trip to the pumpkin farm may be in order soon!
