5. Cozy Chunky Knit Wrapped Pumpkin
When the temperature drops, there is nothing better than wrapping up in a cozy sweater. Bring that exact feeling of warmth and comfort to your fall decor with a chunky knit wrapped pumpkin. This no-sew, highly tactile craft uses thick chenille or wool roving yarn to completely cover a pumpkin form, creating a soft, huggable accent piece that looks incredibly high-end and inviting on any sofa, entryway bench, or mantel.
To make this, you can use a cheap foam pumpkin from the dollar store as your base. Remove the plastic stem. Starting at the bottom, hot glue the end of your chunky yarn and begin wrapping it vertically around the pumpkin, tucking the yarn tightly into the natural grooves of the pumpkin shape. Once the entire surface is covered, secure the yarn at the top. Finish the look by hot gluing a real tree branch piece or a dried cinnamon stick into the center to serve as a rustic, fragrant stem.
