Let the Thanksgiving Decor begin!

Okay, Here's an easy, fast project to get the house looking ready for Fall. Make several of these little pumpkins and put them around the house and you'll have an instant Thanksgiving Ambiance.

Here's how to make these:

Start with strips of Designer Series paper in the color you like. I chose Pumpkin Pie of course. My strips are 6" x 1". The more you have the more filled in your pumpkin will be.

Then you gather them together and punch a hole in each end with the Crop-o-dile. 

Secure the ends with brads. I used the glimmer brads from the mini catalog.

Then you bend the paper into a "c" and start fanning them out.

When you get the pumpkin to look how you want you can add some curled paper and leaves.

Here's a centerpiece for the table:

Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving season!
