Alright, let’s talk about this DIY pumpkin project! So, I’ve been holding onto this bright orange blouse for way too long. You know how it is—you keep something around because the color is just perfect, and you think, “One day, this’ll come in handy.” Well, that day finally came! Instead of letting it gather dust, I decided to transform it into a cozy little pumpkin for my Halloween and fall decor.
Why Upcycle? Because It’s Just So Satisfying
There’s something special about giving old clothes a second life. Sure, I could’ve bought new fabric, but there’s just more charm in using something you already have. Plus, it’s budget-friendly, which is always a win. And let’s be honest, every time I see this little pumpkin sitting on my table, I get a warm fuzzy feeling, like I’ve done something good for my home and the planet.
What You’ll Need
Orange blouse or t-shirt (or any soft fabric with a nice pop of orange)
Black macrame cord (for that classic pumpkin look)
Needle and thread
Pillow stuffing or polyester fiberfill
Hot glue gun
Scissors
You don’t need anything fancy here. Most of this stuff might already be lying around your house.
