Hi, I'm Adrianne from Happy Hour Projects, and I am so excited to share a little bit about my blog with you mamas! I am a new blogger, though I've been addicted to reading craft blogs for a while now. It just took me a very long time to realize, you know, I could do that... :) At Happy Hour, I create tutorials for quick projects - things you can usually do in an hour or less - and my motto is, use what you have. Most of my projects are made from things we all have in our craft rooms, or I suggest substitutions that might work. In fact - these are a few of my favorite projects. (Click an image to visit Happy Hour Projects for the post if you'd like to know more!) I also host a link party every Friday and I would love to see you at Freestyle Friday over at Happy Hour to link up! But enough about me - you're here for some creative juices, right? Well I am going to give you the tutorial on a nice quick project of mine that was quite popular and appropriately fall-themed: The No-Sew Fabric Pumpkin Time: 20 minutes Supplies: 18" square of pumpkin-appropriate material. I used a rusty orange twill. This makes a smallish pumpkin, it's around 6" in diameter, so scale up as you like. 1 lb. beans. Or some stuffing of your choice. I wanted something heavy enough for it not to be toppling over. (Plus I'm out of polyfil... but I had a bag of beans. And if you recall, we always try to use what we have!) Scraps of felt for leaves and coordinating yarn/string/twine. Scissors. Optional but helpful in construction: Plastic wrap. Rubber bands. Hot glue gun. I don't know if I'm being paranoid, but I want the beans to stay dry and not get gross later. So I wrapped them up in 2 layers of plastic wrap first. If you have another form of stuffing, this step is totally unneccessary. It might be unnecessary anyway, but I figure, better safe than sorry. Use a rubberband (or if you don't have any on-hand, a piece of yarn would probably work fine too) to gather up a small point in the center of your square. This is the center underside. By creating pleats/ruffles here, your whole pumpkin will have more pleats instead of being smooth on the lower half. But test it out both ways of you want and see which look you prefer. Put your bag-o-beans in with the rubberband side on the inside and draw the sides up, arranging your pleats as you like. See? Pleaty. Close with a rubber band. Once again, not essential, but having the rubbery surface will help things grip better. Cut off your top to whatever stump-size you like the looks of. This can be a bit difficult with all the layers, but just kind of fan it out, and keep sawing away. :) I closed off with a second rubber band to keep it nice and gathered. I tied a bit of yarn around the bottom so I could begin attaching my felt leaves. Cut some leaves to the shape you like, leaving a nice long tail so they can be wrapped into your stump for security, and over the top of the stump where yarn-wrapping isn't really practical. I am using brown yarn, so I made the brown leaf tail long and fattish, because I want it to wrap all the way over the top of the stump with fabric to spare. Doing this will ensure I don't have ends poking out at the top later. Tie them on how you like them so that everything is fairly secure. See how the brown leaf tail will cover over the stump? I used my hot glue gun to glue the brown felt around the stump. You can probably accomplish the task without hot glue (or any glue, for that matter) and just do a really snug wrap, but securing it now should make wrapping much easier without having to hold those edges down. Then, I tied a bit of yarn underneath the leaves, and began wrapping the long end around the stump, wrapping upward. Honestly, I don't know how much yarn I ended up using, since I unraveled it right from the package-thingy (what's yarn called? A spool? I have no idea.) but I would estimate it was a good 6 feet or so? When I got to the top of the stump, I wrapped it back downward, until I got back to the bottom, where I tied the yarn off with that loose end from the beginning. I trimmed the ends. And that's it! I had myself a finished pumpkin. The possibilities to make this your own are endless - you could use a different texture like burlap or velour, or a bold, funky print. I think you'll find when you raid your craft-stash that you have a lot of options! Thanks for having me, Bobbi, and all the best to you and your family! ~ Adrianne

This rare Pumpkasaur inexplicably appears in pumpkin patches every autumn 🎃 This design is 3D printed and is one of a kind! Remove the pumpkin top and insert an LED tea light just like a real jack-o'-lantern! The pumpkin is removable and can be positioned in any orientation on Pumpkasaur's back. It makes a perfect Halloween decoration, but can also be used year-round to add some spookiness to any room's decor. Looks great with the light on or off (battery-powered LED tea light is included). Great as an art display piece or to be given as a gift. ********************** Pumpkasaur options: The painted version is smoothed by sanding and then hand-painted. A polyurethane coating is applied to protect the paint. For those that enjoy painting, the white version is perfect for a fun DIY painting project. Please see below for painting instructions. The "colour" version is 3D printed with multiple colours and does not need to be painted. Because it is 3D printed, layer lines will be visible on the finished model (see photos). Colours may vary slightly from images. Pumpkin options: The colour version is made with orange material (with a green stem). The inside of the pumpkin is hand-painted with black paint. It is a finished product and does not require further processing. The white pumpkin is perfect for painting. See below for painting instructions. Prices vary depending on finish. All versions of this item include the LED tea light. Please send us a message if you have any questions! ********************** Painting instructions: Please note that the unpainted versions are unprocessed and will require light sanding to remove the print lines which is normal for 3D printed objects. For this reason we only use non-toxic PLA plastic which is a biodegradable plastic based on corn starch. Recommended processing steps: 1. Sand the model with 220 grit (or similar) sandpaper. 2. Clean the model with water to remove any dust. Wipe it down and ensure it is dry for the next step. 3. Lightly prime the model with a filler primer such as those used for automotive repair. 4. Add more light coats with filler primer as needed. 5. Give the primer enough time to completely dry. 6. Sand the primed model with 300-400 grit (or similar) sandpaper 7. (Optional) Prime the model again with regular paint primer. The model is now ready to be painted. For painting, we recommend acrylic or enamel/model paint. Have fun with this DIY project! *********************** Design: This model was 3D printed and hand painted in-house by Lv99DOGE! Each item is unique and may vary slightly from images. Bulbasaur and Pokemon are trademarks of Nintendo and Game Freak. This is a parody item. *********************** Dimensions: With the pumpkin, the figure is approximately 13 cm tall, 8 cm wide, and 14.5 cm long. Pumpkin alone is 8 cm tall and 8 cm wide (large enough to fit a standard electronic LED tea light). Pumpkasaur body alone is 8cm x 11 cm x 9 cm This item is made of plastic and is not for use with real candles. *********************** Shipping: This item is made to order (see processing time). All orders will be sent via post/courier. Tracking is included. For Canadian orders, items are typically delivered 2-8 business days after shipping.
