Don't get rid of those pumpkins after Halloween! Up your game and become the talk of Thanksgiving dinner when you transform your Halloween hits into the cutest fall centerpieces!
This is a SUPER simple craft that will not only add a new twist to your fall decor, but also smell incredible!
"I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion."
- Henry David Thoreau
So let's begin!
Pumkin Succulent Diffuser
What you'll need:
Pumpkins
Succulents
Moss
Baubles
Hot Glue Gun
Spray Glue
Scissors
STEP 1: Trim or remove stem from pumpkin.
STEP 2: Using spray glue, place moss on top of pumpkin. (You'll need less moss than you think!)
STEP 3: Arrange and hot glue succulents into the moss. (It's okay to trim stems if needed!)
STEP 4: Add decorative fall elements or ribbon.
STEP 5: Put 2-3 drops of your favorite essential oil onto moss
FAVORITE FALL OILS: Cinnamon Bark, Nutmeg, Cardamom, Christmas Spirit, Pine, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Thieves, Orange, Clove, Bergamot, Tangerine, Ginger
When pumpkin season has passed, you'll be able to remove succulents, which may have started growing roots, and plant them where desired!
Pumpkin Saver Spray & Succulent Mist
What you'll need:
Stickers/Labels
Distilled Water
Thieves and/or Peppermint Essential Oil
STEP 1: Put total of 10 drops Thieves & Peppermint EO into bottle. (Any combo of the two will work. For example, 5 Thieves + 5 Peppermint or 3 + 7 or 2 + 8 or even all Thieves!)
*If using 16oz bottle, do 30 drops total.
STEP 2: Fill with distilled water.
STEP 3: Use cute sticker or label so you can identify your spray in the future!
Use this spray for ALL THE THINGS!
Great for making pumpkins last longer:
Lightly mist at the start of the season and ever week after.
Carving jack-o-lanterns? Spray inside and outside to avoid bugs and rotting.
Amazing for plants too:
Mist your succulent diffuser once every 4-5 days to keep plants alive.
Mist ALL of your indoor/outdoor plants along with your regular watering schedule to keep pests away and make your plant happy!
That's it! Easy peasy, pumpkin squeezy!!
