Rustic Twine Pumpkin- DIY
I’ve been making twine pumpkins for years, and one thing I’ve learned is that there is definitely more than one way to make them! Depending on the thickness and personality of your twine — because we all know some twine has a mind of its own 😂 — one method may work better than another.
Below I’m sharing my original rustic twine pumpkin method, plus another super easy way to make a mini twine pumpkin using something you probably already have at home — a paper towel tube.
And remember, these do not need to be perfect. The wonky loops are what make them so cute
Are your ready for another fall decor idea? Dollar Tree fall pumpkin like project ?Are you ready for another pumpkin? This one wasn’t planned but I had a nice piece of Jute rope that was in my craft box was looking at me for few weeks… and today is a day! It is time to put it to use. Super easy jute pumpkin is coming my way! Absolutely love to use my scrap materials for my crafts. It is going to be even cheaper then Dollar Tree crafts.I am on the mission to use that last piece!
Can you imagine this little piece of jute inspired me to make this pumpkin?
I have made so many things with this jute rope… Cute Beehive DIY and even upgraded a $3 dollar mirror from Target to nautical stunner! How to Make a Jute Rope Mirror-DIY
It is time to make a pumpkin this time! All you need is simple inexpensive rope, some wire and of course hot glue gun with glue sticks
Steps to easy Pumpkin DIY
Wrap your rope around 3 fingers about 6 times and secure your loop with wire leaving one side longer as shown below
Make 6 loops for fuller pumpkin.
Attach each loop to a Jute twine or anything you like to use as a stem of your pumpkin by tightening wire and a bit of hot glue
Secure middle of all loops with additional rope. Make sure to hide a wire!
Dollar Tree fall pumpkin is almost ready …so exciting
I think few layers of jute hides all wire perfectly
and you are done ! Little bow and we are ready for some photo shoot
Unfortunately or maybe fortunately my jute rope made me family of 3 pumpkins and I LOVE IT !!! I think it is perfect Dollar Tree fall pumpkin
Have some thinner or unruly twine that doesn’t want to cooperate with the method above? Try this one!
Wrap your twine around an empty paper towel tube. The more you wrap, the fuller your pumpkin will be. Carefully slide the entire bundle off the tube and secure the middle so all of those loops stay together.
Now comes the fun part — spread those loops around and around until they meet and create a round pumpkin shape. Don’t try to make every loop perfect! Let some stick out and let others overlap. That messy, wonky look is what gives the pumpkin its handmade charm.
Add a little stick or cinnamon stick for the stem and finish it with ribbon, lace, raffia or whatever you have on hand.
My daughter made a quick recap video for me. How to make a Cutest Twine Pumpkin! It is not professional but it is ours and we are proud of it! We are learning so excuse us.
