- Instructions
-
-
For each pumpkin, cut a circle from a piece of fake fur, fleece, or other fabric (ours were roughly 8 inches in diameter). -
Thread a needle with dental floss and make a knot several inches from the end (you'll use this tail to tie the floss together). Make wide stitches around the circle as shown, about a half-inch from the outer edge. Pull the floss to gather the edges, and stuff the resulting pouch with a plastic shopping bag.
-
Place a short stick into the hole for a stem, then pull and knot the floss so that the fabric is cinched around the stick.
