Directions:

1. Begin adding a few Glue Dots® Glue Squares to the back of the greenery and wheat stem die-cuts.
   
2. Stick them on top of the pumpkin, making your way around with each die-cut.
   
   
3. Add Glue Dots® Glue Squares to the sunflowers and glue them to the top of the pumpkin, leaving one sunflower for the ribbon. Fluff the edges to make them a bit more dimensional.
   
4. Continue adding the die cuts around the pumpkin, overlapping the greenery and wheat.
   
5. Run a line of Glue Dots® Glue Squares along the middle of the pumpkin. Cut some burlap ribbon and fix it to the glue squares. Once the ribbon is in place, add the remainder sunflower to the ribbon end.
   
6. Follow the same steps for the other pumpkin and then you’ll have a cute set of pumpkins for your table. Happy Fall!
