Dollar tree pumpkin makeover

By Debbiedoo's Team Published: Sep 27, 2014 · Modified: Sep 10, 2016

Shop Debbiedoo' stencil lineHappy Fall!

I told you, I love Autumn, and I told you, I share and do a lot.

Today, I am sharing some Dollar tree pumpkin makeovers.

Dollar tree is full of seasonal decor so it makes it quite simple and budget friendly just to pop in there and grab a few things.

This year Dollar tree had small orange pumpkins.

Right now Dollar tree has a ton of Halloween decor out as well.

 No need for these little cuties to stay orange.  Although, cute as is, I love to craft so why not change them up a bit.

All you need is craft paint, I used Chalky paint because I have a ton of it it.

stencils,

twine

and some sticks from your yard.

dollar tree and sunflowers

You will be seeing a lot of sunflowers around here for the next few weeks.

In fact, did you see my Sunflower fall mantel and  Fall side table vignettes?

Yes, full of sunflowers.

 I forgot to take some snaps as I went along.

However, it is pretty self explanatory.

Paint your little pumpkins.  Let them dry

Stencil or leave plain.

I chose to stencil and spell out F A L L.

Dollar tree mini pumpkin makeover

I lightly sanded the pumpkins for a more distressed weathered look.

I pulled out the original plastic stem and added a stick, and tied a bow of twine around the stem.

 Cute and cheap.

I also found some faux flowers and changed out my summer wreath in the kitchen

to an Autumn wreath.

    This is another example of what makes you so creative. I “might” have thought to paint the pumpkins and I “might” have thought to stencil on them. But I never would have thought to switch out the fake stems for a twig. That’s another example of what makes you so exceptional!

    Debbie, I love how the pumpkins turned out! I think stenciling FALL on them was a great idea also. How can we resist Dollar Tree makeovers!

    Love how simple and classy this turned out. Have several of your DIY’s pinned…just need time to try a few.
    Off subject…where ever did you get the terra cotta rooster tile inside the frame. Love this item. Did you make?

      No Deb my friend gifted me that for my birthday one year. I think she found it in Alabama somewhere at a specialty shop. Thank you.

    Dollar Tree shopping is so addictive, Debbie, and I admit to being one of its junkies. You just never know what you will find. Love the way you jazzed up those little punkins’! Fall is my favorite season and it looks as if you are ushering it in with class!

    You always have such cute craft projects, Debbie! I painted a few last year, and it was a good way to cover up that dominant seam they tend to have.

    I love the pumpkins on the branch, Debbie! I HAVE to get over to Dollar Tree so I can pick up some Fall stuff. Glad you reminded me.

    I love the visuals on your web-site. Very pretty.
