Homemade Farmhouse Clothesline Pumpkin Decor

Halloween may have passed but that’s no excuse not to make some homemade Autumn-themed decor for your home. I have my homemade crochet pumpkins on display for most of the year, they just remind me of my favourite time of year!

It’s amazing what you can make with just a few run of the mill household items, some hot glue and some inspiration. This adorable farmhouse style pumpkin takes only a few minutes to make and it makes for a delightful addition to any Autumn decor. Why not whip up a few of your own and celebrate the season?

Supplies:

  • Dollar Tree Pineapple décor
  • Clothesline
  • Hot glue gun & glue
  • Scissors
  • Cork from a wine bottle
  • Raffia

Instructions:

  1. First unwrap the tinsel from around the pineapple.
  2. Add a line of hot glue to the bottom edge of the pineapple and curl the clothesline around the shape, placing it on top of the glue.
  3. Repeat this process, glueing and sticking the clothesline in a spiral shape until you reach the top of the pineapple.
  4. At the very top add glue to the inner side of the clothesline to form the top section,.
  5. Cut the clothesline when you have a gap big enough to fit the cork in the top.
  6. You can add a small line of hot glue to the wine cork to make sure that it securely stayed inside the top of the pumpkin.
  7. Use 2 pieces of raffia to make a bow around the wine cork at top of the pumpkin.
