Directions for Dollar Tree Pumpkin Topiary
First, paint the pumpkins and let dry completely. If you use the white pumpkins, I only had to use one coat of paint.
Next, I used a dry brush with a little brown paint to weather the pumpkins a little after they were dry.
Now cut off the stem of 2 of the pumpkins. Place a toothpick in the top middle of the bottom pumpkin and put a little hot glue around it. Push the middle pumpkin on top of the toothpick. Do the same for the top pumpkin
Now wind the twine around the stem of the top pumpkin and secure the twine with hot glue.
Finally, attach leaves and greenery to the pumpkins
