DIY Wooden Pumpkins

Step 1

Paint one side of your rustic wood slices with white paint. Leave the bark around the edges unpainted. For a rustic look, only use one light coat of paint. Allow to dry completely before continuing.

Step 2

Then get your pumpkin pattern using the form above and print.

Step 3

Place the pumpkin pattern on the white painted side of your wood slice. Tape or hold in place and use a pen to trace around all of the details pressing down well. Trace only the facial features.

Step 4

After tracing, lift up your paper and you will see a slight indent in your wood slice everywhere you traced the pattern. These make the perfect guides for painting.

Step 5

Add dark paint (in this case a dark grey) in the outline areas. Again, I only added one coat because I wanted rustic wooden pumpkins. You can add several coats of paint if you would like.

Step 6

Allow your pumpkin faces to dry then use hot glue to add on a driftwood stem and tie on some raffia to complete the look.
