Wooden pumpkins take just a bit of time, supplies, and a little paint to make. Once they are done gift to a loved one or showcase in your home. 

What Type Of Wood Did You Use For Wood Pumpkins

I bought wooden rosettes for my pumpkins. But, if you have scrap wood or square or oblong pre-cut Wood use that. This pumpkin craft works with almost any type of wood.

I went with acrylic paint from DecoArt. Dark chocolate and a variety of orange colors to add variety. Then on top I used a medium weathered wood crack to give it that crackle look. 

How to Decorate With Wooden Pumpkins

  • Table | Whether it is an entryway table or desk in your home you can place these wood pumpkins out to display. The different sizes will add dimension to help them pop and stand out. 
  • Front Door | You could place these pumpkins on your front porch to greet your guests. Whether you sit them on a wooden crate or just on ground in the corner, they would look darling. 
  • Mantle | If you have a mantle in your home this could be the perfect spot. Add on other items to help add different elements of design. 

What If I Don’t Have Wooden Rosettes

If you don’t want to buy rosettes feel free to find any type of square wood. You can then paint and decorate all the same. Granted it won’t have the same design but they would still look incredibly fun and offer that farmhouse feel! 

Look for scrap wood that you can transform. I am all about crafting that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to do!

Can I Paint My Pumpkins A Different Color

For sure, you can paint your wood pumpkins any color you want. Just make sure the paint you use will stick to wood. I think even a turquoise blue would look darling, and let them pop in color even more.

Yes, just don’t put stems on two of the pumpkins. Then pain and decorate like normal and then stack them on top and leave the one with the stem to be placed on top. Or if you want you can glue the pumpkins together so they stay. Or leave them to where you can take them apart if you so choose. 

Give these painted wooden pumpkins and let me know what you think!

  4. Apply a thick coat of the orange paint with a very limited number of strokes and do not paint over the same area more than once. As the paint dries it will crackle. Large cracks will appear where the medium was put on thick and small cracks will appear where the medium was put on thin.
