"Decorating my yard and painting pumpkins was a Halloween tradition in my family growing up, but now that I'm in my own smaller space, I'm constantly looking for mess-free ways to bring in some fall spirit. A key aspect of fall decor for my apartment is making sure that it's versatile enough to keep up through Thanksgiving (or even the first snowfall)."
"That's why I was so excited to see this cute and easy DIY pumpkin garland tutorial on TikTok from user Amanda (@Ajlevin13). This garland is super easy to assemble (you could make it in about 5 minutes, depending on how long you go), and it's small-space friendly and brings all the cozy fall vibes. It also costs about $16 if you buy the 10-pumpkin pack on Etsy and have a needle and twine at home."
"Amanda shows in the video that the first step of this DIY is to cut the wire stems off the sherpa pumpkin picks. Unfortunately, the pumpkin picks she uses in the video are currently sold out online at Hobby Lobby, but I was able to find a similar felt pumpkins that are garland-friendly (you can pull the twine through the soft center of the pumpkin) and come in a ton of different colors."
Create a simple pumpkin garland by removing wire stems from sherpa or felt pumpkin picks, then threading them onto twine with a needle. Felt pumpkins allow the twine to pass through the soft center, while sherpa picks require stem removal. Measure twine length or leave it on the spool to ensure enough for knots and spacing. Pierce each pumpkin near the top third to string them, cut the twine to length, and hang the garland where preferred. A ten-pumpkin pack costs about $16, and the finished garland fits small spaces and seasonal displays through Thanksgiving.
