Supplies Needed

21 canning rings
Twine
Spray paint or Acrylic paint – dark orange
Clear acrylic coating spray finish
Cinnamon sticks
1/4” ribbon

Small sunflower
Hack Saw & safety glasses

Steps

Using spray paint or acrylic paint and brush, paint each of the canning rings dark orange. You may need to do a few coats to get the desired color. Let dry.

Seal rings with clear acrylic coating spray finish. Let dry.

Arrange canning rings in a circular shape. Once you have 21 rings arranged in a circle, thread twine through the center.

Wrap twine through the center or the rings several time, pulling snug but don’t tie ends.

Insert cinnamon stick into the center of rings. Determine how tall you want the stem. Mark and cut cinnamon stick with a hack saw. Make sure to wear safety glasses to protect your eyes!

Insert the cut cinnamon stick back into the center and pull twine as snug as you can get it. Tie twine in a double knot and cut ends.

Hot glue cinnamon stick into the center.

Tie raffia and ribbon around stem and hot glue sunflower.

Dispay!

Tips & Tricks

Here are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind as you create your canning jar ring pumpkin:

If you don’t have cinnamon sticks on hand, you can use small twigs or sticks from your yard instead.
For an extra festive touch, consider painting each of the canning rings a different color and creating a rainbow pumpkin.
If you’re feeling extra creative, you can also experiment with different materials to create a unique pumpkin. Try using burlap or fabric instead of raffia, or add additional decorative elements like glitter or beads.
To add a touch of autumn charm, glue a few small fabric leaves around the base of the stems. This will give your pumpkin an extra burst of color and texture.

There you have it – your very own canning jar ring pumpkin! This DIY project is not only fun to make, but it’s also a great way to add a touch of fall to your home décor. Whether you display it on your mantel or use it as a centerpiece for your Thanksgiving table, this pumpkin is sure to add a charming touch to any space.
