Wooden pumpkins last from year to year, unlike that rotting vegetable on your front porch! Turn your scrap wood pile into one of these wooden pumpkin ideas!
Fall is all about the pumpkins (PSL, anyone?) and most of these wooden pumpkins were created from free lumber. There are so many takes on the humble pumpkin, I'm not sure which one I like best!
Seasonal decorations are the perfect way to use up that scrap wood pile! I've made giant conversation hearts for Valentine's Day and oversized watermelon slices for summer out of 2 x 12 remnants. It's a great way to get creative without a huge financial commitment!
Wooden Pumpkin Ideas
This rustic pallet pumpkin trio was made with the wood from two pallets, along with a scrap piece of cedar for the base. It's skinny enough for your mantel, and it also makes a great porch decoration!
Wooden pumpkins can't get much simpler than these! Just stack up some 2 x 4's and add a stem to create these cuties.
These friendly pumpkins are made from scraps of 4 x 4. They're so fun to stack and rearrange!
I love the X shape of these reclaimed wood pumpkins! The green wire around the stems gives the perfect finishing touch.
Go bold with this geometric pumpkin! You could change the colors to suit your decor while still giving your home a seasonal touch.
Combine your wooden pumpkin with fall flowers like mums with this rustic pumpkin stand.
These polka dot pumpkins are sooooo cute! The touch of gold on the stems brings the whole look together.
Don't toss that stump in the burn pile just yet! With a little creative carving, you can turn it into a wooden pumpkin that looks just like the real thing!
If you just have a few slats of a pallet left over from another project, slice them and stack them to form these little wooden pumpkins.
Nothing says you're ready for fall quite like this wooden pumpkin sign!
Turn those old fence boards into this cute pumpkin sign! This one forms a stake that can be inserted into the ground anywhere in the garden.
Take a stroll down the trim and mouldings aisle of your local home improvement store and pick up the supplies for these corner block wooden pumpkins.
Adding an oval to the front of a flat wooden pumpkin gives it a three dimensional effect. This white one would look great with any decor!
These pallet pumpkins are full of texture! You've gotta check out her aqua chevron version too!
