16. Rustic Twig and Moss Mosaic Pumpkins
Bring the raw, untouched beauty of the forest floor indoors with a rustic twig and moss mosaic pumpkin. Gather small, dry twigs, bits of bark, dried lichen, and vibrant green preserved forest moss. Using a hot glue gun, attach the twigs vertically along the natural ridges of a medium-sized pumpkin, cutting them to fit the curve. Fill the gaps between the twigs with tufts of bright green moss and textured lichen, creating a lush, living tapestry across the surface. This highly textured, organic craft smells wonderfully of the woods and brings a beautiful, earthy element to a rustic dining table, porch, or mantlepiece styled with warm lanterns and pinecones.
