Grab a 1" circle punch, pattern paper and Glue Dots to make a simple home decor project that brings the beautiful autumn colors inside. Designer Smitha shows you how to make a pumpkin patch for your home!
Fall has to be the most colorful season. And I love bringing some of those colors into our house, by making some framed art for our mantle.
Here's what you need:
- Glue Lines®
- Pop Up Glue Dots®
- 8" x 10" frame (without glass)
- Cardstock
- Watercolor paints
- Patterned paper
- 1" circle punch
- Scissors
Here's what you do:
- Using cardstock, add some interest to it with some watercolor paints. Splatter a few different colors on damp paper and let dry completely.
- Punch three circles from each patterned paper.
- To form the pumpkins, I adhered the three circles together using Glue Lines. These lines are the perfect size for this project. Place a glue line in the center of the circle and layer another folded circle on top. Make 12 such circle pumpkins.
- Next cut some leaves from green patterned paper. Also cut thin strips and curl them to form the pumpkin vines.
- Mark a grid on the base cardstock, and adhere one Pop Up Dots onto each of the marks. Adhere two leaves and one vine to the top portion of each dot.
- Finally, adhere the pumpkin circles onto the Pop Up Dots.
- Place into a nice wooden frame (without the glass) and place in your favorite spot in the house!
Thanks for stopping by!
