Wrapping pumpkins has become quite popular lately and is something I have been doing for years! Rather than purchase a wrap, make your own with tulle.
Tulle is a netting like material that is very inexpensive and comes in a variety of colors! Go to the fabric store and purchase tulle and ribbon, that is all you will need. I like to get black tulle and orange ribbon, but whatever colors you choose will be great!
What do you need?
Pumpkins
Tulle
Ribbon
Rubberbands
For large pumpkins, measure the height of your pumpkin and cut a square of tulle that is double the height plus 12-18 inches! Place your pumpkin in the center of your square, gather the ends at the top and secure at the stem with a rubber band. Now tie on your ribbon and trim the edges of the tulle – done and beautiful!
I also like to cover small pumpkins and place them on candles holders! This makes for a wonderful centerpiece!
The small pumpkins require a 12 inch square of tulle. Tie it up with a ribbon and you have created a delightful Halloween decoration that will last right into Thanksgiving!
Happy Halloween!
