Start with your orange buttons and stack them, so they resemble the bottom of a pumpkin. Use hot glue to secure them together.
Next, we need to make the stem of the pumpkin. You can do this one of two ways: with twine or tiny black buttons. It’s really up to you.
Here’s the first option: First is to top with a few green buttons and secure those with hot glue.
Here’s the second option: Add a few small orange buttons to the top and secure those with hot glue. Then, wrap the top orange buttons with the baker’s twine and secure them with hot glue.
Your button pumpkins are ready for display in your home. Do you have vintage buttons just lying around? Grab them and make some of these in just minutes!
