Time: 1 hour

Level:  Quick and Easy

Size: 7" x 7"

 Here's what you need:

• Advanced Strength Dots™
• Mini Dots™
• Paper trimmer
• Paint brush
• Wooden circle
• FolkArt® Ultra Dye (lady marmalade)
• Card stock (orange)
• Ribbon (green)
• Assorted googly eyes
• Small craft poms (black)

 Here's what you do:

Apply one coat of dye to front and back of  each circle. Be sure to allow for drying time in between sides.

While your circle finishes drying, use a paper trimmer to cut 40 strips of card stock that measure 4" x 3/4" .

Attach an Advanced Strength Dot to one end of card stock strip and secure to other end, creating a loop. Repeat for each strip until 40 loops are made.

Using Advanced Strength Glue Dots, attach a 6" piece of thin ribbon to the back of the circle, creating a loop for hanging.  

Create a pumpkin stem by adhering additional Advanced Strength Dots to back of circle and attaching a 5" piece of wide ribbon, securing the other end to the front of circle.

Apply 2 Advanced Strength Dots to each loop and secure to the front of the wood circle.

Use Mini Dots, attach googly eyes and poms to the front of the loops as desired.

Tips:

• Attaching all 40 loops to the circle is very similar to figuring out a puzzle. Play around with placement before securing loops permanently to the wood circle.
