To create this pumpkin, you will need:
1-Photocopy the fabric you wish to use on a laser printer.

2-Then you will decoupage that onto your pumpkin.

3-Cut or tear the paper into a few strips one inch wide.

4-Use the foam brush to apply the Mod Podge to the back of the paper strips lightly and to a section of the pumpkin the same size of your paper. let the Mod Podge dry for about 30 seconds this makes it a bit stickier and hold down the fabric faster. Remember it gets stickier as it dries this makes it easier to adhere the fabric/paper to the pumpkin.

5-Press your fabric/Paper down gently right underneath the pumpkin stem then tap it gently. Count to 10 and specifically hold down the areas that don’t automatically adhere.

6-Apply the next paper strip lining up the pattern, and then over and over continue around the pumpkin.
7-Give your Pumpkin one or two coats overall of Mod Podge to smooth down the fabric/paper to the pumpkin.

Let the Mod Podge dry about 1 hour. Then apply 2 more coats to protect the fabric/paper. Dry 1 hour in between coats. You can apply as many coats of Mod Podge as you wish, but 3 layers are quite enough to give the desired effect.

8-After you are over, and the pumpkin is dry you can add embellishments like a ribbon… Clean-up was a snap if needed.
