Fabric-Decorated Pumpkins

In this tutorial, we're combining a classic fall decoration—pumpkins—with one of our passions: fabric. So we're decorating pumpkins with scraps.

Yes, we know you have lots of fabric scraps from all the projects you've been making—those little pieces you save like treasures to use someday for an appliqué, to make something patchwork-style, or who knows what! But you keep them because it feels awful to throw them away.

So, combining the fall pumpkins  (which everyone ends up painting) + scraps, we thought we could cover them with the scraps. It's time to bring them out and have a great time creating something beautiful.

All you'll need are the pumpkins, white glue, a paintbrush, the scraps, and a desire to have fun.

This activity is ideal for doing with the little ones at home; each person can make their own pumpkin and let their creativity run wild.

Here's the tutorial on our YouTube channel:

You know that if you liked it, don't forget to give it a thumbs-up, and if you make this type of pumpkin, I'd love to see photos of the results. If you post them on social media, you can tag us or use #cosiendoconlulu
