Glass Pumpkin

  Glass pumpkin five

    I was so inspired by these globe pumpkins, I wanted to make my own. I have these beautiful antique pendent light fixtures for my kitchen but David has not had the time to install them. I decided to take one and make a temporary pumpkin.

Glass pumpkin three

    I used a bit of tacky wax to attach the spool to the top of the globe. (it is easy enough to remove the spool and clean the glass). I filled the urn with crumpled paper and some old crochet lace. Added the glass globe and whaa-laa a glass pumpkin. Quite easy to do and charming, which is what I love when crafting!

Just stunning! The whole thing including the urn. Gorgeous. I picked up a glass globe last year with the same idea. Just goes to show great minds think alike!
