Paper Pumpkin Decoration for Fall and Thanksgiving

Oct

Hello Pebbles friends! It’s Monique on the blog today and I’m so happy to be sharing this “paper pumpkin” home decor project with you. Autumn is my favorite season of the year and I just love decorating my house for this season. Over the years I’ve collected quite a few bits and pieces, both for inside and outside the house, but every year I just need to create something new and for today’s blog post I decided to make these paper pumpkins using the wonderful Woodland Forest collection.

I just love how they turned out with their perfect colors and pretty papers. Right now I’m using them to brighten up my living room, but with Thanksgiving I’m going to use them to decorate my diner table and that’s why I decided to create matching “place cards” as well:

The mini kraft pocket tags were just perfect for this purpose. I selected the “thank you” phrase tags from the Homemade phrase tags package and inserted those in the pockets, but coming Thanksgiving I want to write a more personal message for everyone and put those in the pockets.

Let me show you quickly how I made the paper pumpkins. It’s really very simple:

Gather the 6″x 6″ paper pad from the Woodland Forest collection, a few “thank you” phrase tags and a 2.5″ circles punch (or 1.5″ for the pumpkin decoration on the pockets).
Punch 6 circles.
Trim off a little strip from each circle.
Score the circles in the middle.
Fold the circles in half (and ink the edges if you like).

Next glue all sides together, place a little stick (or a thin strip of paper) in the centre and place one of the labels/tags over it. Add two punched leaves and the pumpkin is ready!

To create this pumpkin to decorate a place card (pocket tag) is similar. Just use a smaller circle punch and don’t glue all the sides of the pumpkin together, but glue the last one to the pocket. Add the initial of the person the pocket/card is for and you’re done!

Foiled Leaves Garland

Hello everyone! I’m Eva Pizarro and today I want to share with you a quick tutorial for a Fall Garland using Pebbles new Warm & Cozy line.

This line has beautiful papers and embellishments and my favorite were the Printed Chipboard Leaves. The package contains 24 leaves with different prints and shapes, when I saw them I knew I had to make a home decor and use them all together.

Start by embellishing your leaves. Put some masking tape on half of them and use the Minc Reactive Foil and Minc Reactive Paint to embellish them. I did some dots on the other half of the leaves. you can make stripes or use a stencil also!

Run the leaves through your Minc with the Rose Gold foil.

The foil effect is amazing, I love the look! If you don’t have a Minc machine you can use the washi tape strips in this collection to add accents to the leaves. I think it would look lovely as well!

Add some stitching with your sewing machine right in the middle of your leaves and bend them a little to add more dimension.

Create a garland by running your leaves trough your sewing machine.

Secure them by adding a small dot of hot glue on the back.

Your garland is ready and you can use it to decorate your mantle, your front door, a mirror or a shelf!

I think the foil gives the leaves a unique look. What do you think? Do you decorate your home during the fall?

If you liked this post you probably will like this other one too! Here are some small thank you cards made with the same technique.

Have a great day!
Eva

DIY Fall Welcome Sign

Leave a Comment

Hey there Pebbles friends and fans, Becki here. Fall is officially here!! I’m so excited to share this DIY Fall welcome sign I created using the Warm & Cozy collection. To me this collection is cabins, quilts, flannel shirts, and a huge cup of hot chocolate. I wanted to create something that looked like a quilt for this welcome sign. I started by cutting a lot of hexagons from scraps that I had from previous projects from the Warm & Cozy collection. I used a large punch but you could use an electronic die cut machine, manual die cut machine, or a template.

I used a 5×7 frame so I adhered the hexagons to a piece of 5×7 cardstock. Then I stitched around each hexagon with my sewing machine. This step took a lot of time. I questioned if this step was worth it, but it really was worth it!

I think this detailed step made a HUGE difference in the final project. I LOVE the detail of the stitching.

I added the “welcome” sentiment with foam adhesive. I did have to cut some of the foam adhesive so they would fit under the “welcome” sticker.

Here’s the final product! I can’t wait to display this DIY Fall welcome sign with the rest of my Fall home decor. I love the quilted background. It’s the perfect touch for any Fall home decor.

I added foam adhesive to make the “welcome” pop off the background but you could easily place the sticker right on the background and place sign behind a piece of glass in a frame. Even with all the machine stitching I had this project done in less than an hour. What Fall projects are you working on with the Warm & Cozy collection? You should try creating DIY Fall Welcome sign.
