How to Make a Scrapbook Paper Pumpkin

I made this Scrapbook Paper Pumpkin on video. So you can WATCH the tutorial by clicking below.

You can leave your toilet paper roll the original size, or you can cut it shorter, just know that the size of your TP roll will determine the size of your pumpkin. I cut about a half inch off of mine.

Then, cut a piece of scrapbook paper the size of the TP roll, and then Mod Podge the paper around it so that you can not see the cardboard. You could decide to paint the roll as well, either way works.

Next, cut several strips of scrapbook paper, in a variety of coordinating colors and patterns. This is by far easiest to do with a paper cutter! This Fiskars one is my FAVE.

The length of your strips will determine how big and plump or tall and lean your pumpkin is. Shorter pieces will make it more tall and lean of a pumpkin and longer strips will make it more short and fat. There is no right or wrong! I made mine about 9″ x 1.5″.

Now begin gluing the strips to the inside top and bottom of the TP roll. Start by spreading them out, overlapping just slightly, and then once you have gone all the way around you can go back and fill in some of the bigger gaps with scrapbook paper strips.

Now the fun part….time to embellish! I stuffed some paper down into the roll so that the embellishments had something to glue to. Then I glued on a few sticks as the “stem”, along with a piece of rusty wire that I curled into a curly Q.

I added a couple of burlap leafs, the teal one was precut and the other I cut from regular burlap.

Lastly, a Sunflower….OBVI! #IYKYK
