This project took me to the corners of the shed where there were pieces of 2x4 lumber left from the construction of our flower garden. I selected four of these pieces for my ribbon pumpkin. You need 1 piece longer ("6), 2 about the same size (4"), and 1 small piece (1"). I painted 3 of them terra-cotta orange and 1 green.
Then I took one of the 4" pieces and drilled 6 holes in it.
Next I took the 4" piece with the wire. I put hot glue on the bottom of each piece of wire.
Before it hardened, this piece was placed on top of the other two pieces. Again, I used screws to attach it and the green piece. All wood is now screwed in place.
Using hot glue and wire ribbon, I attached pieces of ribbon to the top of the wood. I curled the wire as well to make it look like vines. This was the result.
This is so cute and creative! Great job.
