How to Make DIY Pumpkin Napkin Rings
Fall DIY Project Supplies
- Mini foam pumpkin picks (1″ size)
- Wood rings (1 7/8″ in diameter, sometimes called macrame rings)
- Matte acrylic paint in your color of choice
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Scissors

Fall Decor Instructions
- Detach the mini pumpkin from the stem.
- Use the paintbrush to paint all sides of the pumpkin, including the bottom.
- Next, let it dry completely, and add another coat if needed.
- Make a bow with the ribbon. A double bow will add fullness.
- Add a drop of hot glue to the bottom of the bow and then attach it to the wooden ring.
- Once the glue hardens, add a second drop to the middle of the bow and press the bottom of the painted mini pumpkin onto the bow.
