The other day on Pinterest I spotted these Houndstooth Pumpkins.
Which you saw in my Skull Felt Pillow {Target Knock-Off} post from yesterday.
You can visit the The V Spot which is the original source of the project.
I just thought it was too cute to not make, especially because I already had a few of these Dollar Tree pumpkins lying around.
I went to Michaels and bought the Houndstooth duct tape {with a coupon of course}. Came home and 10 minutes later had myself a couple of adorable black & white themed pumpkins to match my typical black & white Halloween displays. Such a quick and simple way to transform the foam pumpkin. Although I didn’t split my duct tape like she did in tutorial at The V Spot, mine still turned out great. I also just painted my stems with acrylic paint. There are so many great duct tape patterns and color right now. I almost bought the gold and silver ones, but then decided that since I already had gold and silver spray paint at home I didn’t need to buy the duct tape. But aren’t they fun?

I hope everyone has a great weekend!
I love that pumpkin! Very clever girl!
OH!! This pumpkin is amazing! I must have one! Was it difficult to make the tape lay on the pumpkins creases?
It turned out great! I love your skull pillow too! (And thanks for the shout out.)
I want to do this! I bought some of those pumpkins last year. Wonder if I can find them! 🙂 YEA!!! So so simple!!! I might have to glue a rolled flower on it to make it girly! 😉
The sparrows are now rarely seen!!! But the pumpkins and the skull species are being witnessed by the whole world and one will confess that this SUNDAY is going to be great Art & Craft class with a color combinations. Thanks…
