How To: Make Yarn-Wrapped Gourds for Fall!

by on Oct 17, 2011

It’s officially sweater season–even for pumpkins.  Give those dutiful gourds their own yarn-wrapped treatment and warm up your decor in one fell swoop!  

 

Believe it or not, these cozy-looking gourds and pumpkins started their lives as plastic dollar store finds.  Jessica from Two Shades of Pink scored a pack of five for $1 then added a few larger gourds to the mix.  Using yarn she had on hand and her trusty glue gun, she created one of the most cost-effective, easy, and darling fall crafts I’ve seen in a while!  Great job, Jessica!
