I love getting creative with paper placemats and Amazon has an amazing paper pumpkin placemat. We can easily turn this paper pumpkin placemat into a fun decorative pumpkin.
The supplies that we’ll be using are:
1. Paper pumpkin placemats from Amazon
2. Dollar Tree aluminum cookie sheets
3. Scissors
4. Hot glue
5. Spanish moss
6. Decoupage by DecoArt
7. Paint brush
8. Fine orange and brown glitter

The first step is to cut the outer edge of the cookie sheets.
The next step is to glue the two cookie sheets together as shown in photo above.
You’ll want to add the decoupage to the cookie sheets and then place the paper pumpkin placemat on top.
Be sure to press down on the paper placemat and get any wrinkles or air bubbles out.
You’ll add more decoupage over the paper placemat and then you’ll cut the pumpkin out as shown in photo below.
You’ll add decoupage over the darker orange areas as shown in photo below.
Once you add the decoupage you’ll then sprinkle on the orange glitter.
You can add some brown glitter to the stem.
You can find the glitter that I’m using on 143 vinyl by clicking my referral link down below.

I added a little Spanish moss around the base of the stem. This pumpkin is so easy to create and will make a great decoration for Fall.
You can bend the bottom of the pumpkin as shown in photo above. Bending the bottom will allow the pumpkin to stand up.
I hope you’ll get creative and give this pumpkin a try.
