Festive Fall Craft: “Charming” Little Pumpkins with Alex + Ani

With the beautiful season of fall in full force, many of us will host gatherings or parties in our homes. Whether we’re celebrating a holiday or autumn as a whole, festive décor plays an important role in setting the mood and creating ambiance.



Looking for an easy yet original way to delight your guests? Our “Charming” Little Pumpkins are just the thing! Made using a few simple materials and bangles you already own, it’s a personal way to channel love and positivity as you spend time with family and friends.
Materials
• 3-6 pumpkins and/or gourds (various sizes)
• Seasonal ribbon (various colors and designs)
• Scissors
• Alex and Ani bangles
Directions
1. Select desired bangles and arrange on a pumpkin stem.
2. Snip several strands of various ribbons.
3. Loop a strand or several strands of ribbon around the pumpkin or gourd stem and tie in a bow, making sure the knot of the bow is as close to the base of the stem as possible, holding the bangles in place.
4. Adjust the bow as preferred.
5. Repeat the process on desired number of pumpkins.
6. Arrange in your home for a fun and festive display.


We grouped together a few pumpkins to create the perfect centerpiece! Feel free to style them anywhere, from a shelf on the wall to the kitchen counter, for spirited, seasonal fun.
