Hoop Pumpkin Craft
STEP ONE
Gather all supplies. Wooden embroidery hoops can be found in the stitching area of the craft store. Unfinished wooden finials can be found in the craft section. Loosen the metal screws and separate the inner and outer hoops so you have three hoops total. Dry fit the hoops together to create a 3D sphere shape. Dollar Tree has such a HUGE selection of materials that can be upcycled and good quality craft supplies which won’t blow your budget!
STEP TWO
Basecoat the 6” embroidery hoops with Spiced Pumpkin acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry and apply a second coat, if necessary. Basecoat the 4” embroidery hoops with Burnt Orange acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry and apply a second coat, if necessary. I love Americana Acrylics from DecoArt because they have one-coat coverage on most surfaces.
STEP THREE
Attach one of the small wooden finials to the top of the medium wooden finial with the glue gun and glue sticks to create a large wooden finial. Basecoat both finials with Light Cinnamon acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry and apply a second coat, if necessary.
STEP FOUR
Starting with two 6” embroidery hoop pieces, insert one inside the other forming an “X” shape. Slide the third 6” hoop over the first two forming a line through the “X” as shown in the photo. Secure with a glue gun and glue sticks. Repeat with the three 4” embroidery hoops. Attach the large finial onto the 6” pumpkin and the small finial onto the 4” pumpkin.
STEP FIVE
Measure and cut a 12” and an 8” length of wired twine with wire cutters. Wrap around a pencil, creating a coil and then slide off the pencil. Pull the coil apart to create a pumpkin vine.
Cut several leaf shapes from Olive Green and Kelly Green Kunin Felt with scissors. Run a small line of glue at the base of the leaves and fold it in half to create dimension. Kunin Classic Felt comes in 9″ by 12″ Craft Cuts that make all your DIY projects quick and easy since it won't fray when cut.
STEP SIX
To finish, attach the wired twine vines to the top of each pumpkin using a glue gun and glue sticks, and then glue the felt leaves to the side of the finials.
