Chenille Bump Pumpkin Tutorial

 Today I want to show you 

how to make these cute little 

pumpkins made with chenille bumps!

They will be perfect for Halloween and Thanksgiving!

 First, here are the materials you need:

*styrofoam ball approx. 6" around

*orange chenille bumps

(it takes about 16 bumps to go around)

*green chenille bumps

*glue (optional)

*wire cutters (optional)

 First, I take the ball and squish it

with the palm of my hand,

to make it flat on top and bottom.

Then I start inserting each bump,

one end goes into the top flat side

and the other goes into the bottom flat side.

 I just keep going around till I get it full and covered.

 I leave a bare spot on top,

that's where the stem goes.

Cut the green bumps in half.

 Insert a pencil into the bare spot,

and stick on of the green chenille halves into it.

If you want you can add a dab of glue to secure.

 They are really fast to make

and are so adorable.

I hope you try it out!

Bye for now!
