Ring Pumpkins

Ring Pumpkins


I have seen this done so many times, and I finally decided that I needed to make one for myself.  It’s a very simple craft, and it’s so easy to individualize each one.


Materials:
  • 20 rings from mason jar lids
  • Orange spray paint
  • Florist wire
  • Wire cutters
  • Cinnamon stick
  • Artificial leaves
  • Artificial vine
  • Hot glue gun with glue sticks


Directions:

  • Spray paint the rings on all sides.  It’s best to do 2 coats.  Allow to dry between coats.

  • Once dry, string all 20 rings onto the florist wire.

  • Cut the wire with the wire cutters leaving some extra length for twisting
  • Bring the two ends of the wire together and start twisting the wire.  This will pull the rings into a circle, and the circle will close as you twist.


  • Place the cinnamon stick in the open center of the circle (this is your stem), using the hot glue to keep it in place

  • Using the hot glue, embellish with the vine and leaves, as desired
