This is a quick project that will give your Barbie house, pictures and fall dioramas a little seasonal flair.

One pack of each size pumpkin(s) is enough to make two topiaries.
There are also leftover extra pumpkins and leaf shapes that can be used for something else later.
Directions:
- Cut the pick off of the bottom and stem off the top of the larger pumpkin, and cut the stem off of the middle sized one.
- I found that they stacked better if I turned the large pumpkin upside down, the bottom is flatter.
- The large pumpkin didn't completely cover the opening of the k-cup so we'll need something to cover the opening. Glue a colorful artificial fall leaf to lay across the top of the k-cup, or miniature leaves, raffia, Spanish moss, anything glued to the rim to cover the hole (see pic below). I crochet a chain of brown eyelet yarn and glued it to the top of the k-cup.
- Glue large pumpkin to k-cup and the other two on top of each other. I used hot glue, any strong glue will work.
- Decorate k-cup if desired (before or after adding the pumpkins, before might be better if a kids project).
Make something just for fun and have a happy day:@)
