Fall is the perfect season for adding a touch of rustic charm to your home decor, and what better way to do that than by creating your own twine pumpkins? These adorable decorations are not only easy to make but also add a cozy and inviting feel to your space. So, gather your supplies, roll up your sleeves, and let’s get crafting!

Materials Needed:

Step 1: Wrap Twine Around 3 Fingers
Begin by taking your twine and wrapping it around your three fingers multiple times. The number of times you wrap it will determine the size of your pumpkin, so you can adjust according to your preference. Once you’ve wrapped it enough times, carefully slide the bundle of twine off your fingers.

Step 2: Tie Off
Now, take a separate piece of twine and tie it tightly around the center of your twine bundle. This will create the classic pumpkin shape with a cinched middle. Make sure the knot is secure.

Step 3: Hot Glue to a Cinnamon Stick
With your pumpkin shape securely tied, it’s time to add the stem. Dab some hot glue on the the knot of your twine and press onto the bottom of your cinnamon stick. Hold it in place for a moment to ensure a strong bond. This gives your pumpkin a lovely, natural stem.

Step 4: Repeat 4 Times
Repeat the above steps 4 more times to fill in your pumpkin. You can make as many as you like in various sizes to create a charming pumpkin patch display. Each one will have its unique character and texture.

Step 5: Arrange and Decorate
Once you’ve crafted all your twine pumpkins, arrange them on a table, mantle, or any spot in your home that needs a touch of fall. You can get creative with additional decorations like faux leaves, burlap, or even tiny fairy lights for an extra cozy feel.


Making twine pumpkins is not only a fun and creative activity but also a wonderful way to embrace the beauty of the fall season. These rustic decorations bring warmth and character to your home, making it feel even more inviting during autumn. So, grab your twine, cinnamon sticks, and glue gun, and let your crafting skills shine as you create your very own pumpkin patch of handcrafted charm. Happy crafting!
