Instructions:

STEP ONE

Gather all supplies. Cotton lace doilies are available on Amazon, just make sure they are cotton.

Squeeze 1 oz. of bright orange craft paint in a 3 oz. spray bottle, fill with 2 oz. of water. Replace cap and shake until all paint has dissolved into the water. Repeat with the burnt orange acrylic craft paint and the second spray bottle.

STEP TWO

Remove any labels from the doilies. Place the doilies on top of some scrap cardboard. Spray the larger cotton doily with burnt orange and the smaller cotton doily with bright orange paint.

Set aside to dry. Flip doilies over and apply a second coat. Set aside to dry completely.

STEP THREE

Loosen the screw at the top of both hoops and remove the outer rings from the inner rings.

Basecoat the 6” hoop with burnt orange acrylic craft paint, and then paint the 4” hoop with bright orange acrylic craft paint. Set aside to dry.

STEP FOUR

Fit the Lace Doilies loosely into the embroidery hoops. Pull gently from the back to ensure the lace is taught and then tighten the screw at the top of the hoop.

Trim the excess Lace from the back of the embroidery hoop with scissors.

Apply a thin line of Fabric Glue to the cut edge of the Lace to secure. Set aside to dry. This step will prevent the chunky lace from slipping out or coming loose from the hoop.

STEP FIVE

Cut leaf shapes from a scrap piece of olive green craft felt with scissors.

Create polka dots on one leaf using bright green acrylic craft paint and a new pencil eraser. Create a plaid pattern on the second leaf by dabbing vertical and horizontal lines with a flat paintbrush.

Carefully cut a recycled wine cork in half vertically with a craft knife.

STEP SIX

Once the paint is dry, attach the stems to the metal screw on the embroidery hoop pumpkins with a glue gun and glue sticks.

Glue a patterned leaf to the side of each stem.

Tie two bows with black and white gingham ribbon. Attach to the from of the cork stems with a glue gun and glue sticks. Trim any long ribbon ends with scissors.

This quick and easy pair of Lace Hoop Pumpkins goes together in just about 30 minutes (not including drying time) with limited supplies. Fun to give as a gift or keep for yourself.
