First, cut three different lengths of 2x4's. My tallest is 10", the middle is 6.5", and the small is 3.5".
Second, paint each pumpkin.
Third, use a chisel and take some wood off the sides. Also, distress by sanding each side of the pumpkin.
Fourth, drill five holes in the top of each pumpkin. Then brake up a stick into five little sticks for each pumpkin and glue them with wood glue into the holes. These act as the stem.
Fifth, use berries, leaves, raffia, and jute string to add that cuteness they need.
Lastly, display and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Thanks for the cute craft idea. And thanks to my husband & I never getting rid of anything, we had all the supplies already on hand! The kids had a great time painting & finding sticks & leaves to decorate them with. I even made a set out of 2x6s for my front porch. :)
