Have empty oil bottles on hand? After cleaning them properly, upcycle them into a cute, decorative pumpkin, perfect for autumn.
Instructions:
Paint the bottoms of your empty oil bottles orange.
Arrange the bottles in rows and hot glue the sides together. Then, stack the rows into a pumpkin pattern with hot glue between each row. (Full-sized pumpkin pattern: 3, 4, 5, 4, 3. Mini pumpkin pattern: 2, 3, 2)
Take an essential oil lid and glue it to the top of the pumpkin for the stem.
Cut leaf shapes from the green felt or paper and hot glue them on or around the stem.
Tie a short length of twine around the stem to resemble the vine.
