  • 10 inch Natural Twig Pumpkin
  • Metal Flower Pot Planter with Burlap Label
  • Tim Holtz Distress Spray Stain
  • Preserved Sheet Moss
  • Floral Foam
  • 2.5 inch Burlap Ribbon
  • .5 inch Wooden Dowel
  • Hot Glue Gun

diy-pumpkin-topiary-consumer-crafts-unleashed-6Step one. Begin by lightly staining the wooden dowel with the Tim Holtz Distress spray stain. Spray it with stain and wipe using a paper towel until the desired shade is achieved. Then insert the dowel into the bottom of the pumpkin, as close to center as you can manage. Hot glue the dowel rod into place.

diy-pumpkin-topiary-consumer-crafts-unleashed-7Step two. Cut the floral foam to size and place inside the metal planter. Stick the dowel rod into the center of the foam and hot glue into place. If the topiary seems tipsy, add some rocks to the bottom of the planter to stabilize it.
