Reclaimed Wood White Pallet Pumpkin

My favorite kind of pumpkin is a white one. I love neutral colored and white pumpkins of all shapes and sizes.

Today I'm turning reclaimed pallet wood into a stenciled white pumpkin.

I attached the reclaimed wood... 


you can read all about it by visiting this Pallet Pumpkin Patch Sign tutorial.





After I built the pallet, I sketched a pumpkin then cut it out using a jigsaw. 


I attached it to a stand and added Spanish moss at the bottom.

I painted the pallet white using craft paint.

If you're impatient like me, you're going to like my tip for drying paint quickly... 


just stick it in front of a fan for a little while. 😉

When the paint dried I was ready to stencil. 


The wreath stencil I had planned on using was too wide for this pallet so I cut it down the center and taped it back together. 


I'm using a great cardboard holiday stencil set I bought from Amazon.

The wreath modification made it more oval shaped and fit perfectly on the pumpkin shape!

I cut out "Give Thanks" from the center of the stencil then re-stenciled it into the center of the wreath.

I added a cork, a fall leaf, moss, and a wire tendril to create a decorative stem then hot glued it to the wooden stem on the pumpkin.

This white pallet pumpkin is gonna be beautiful in my home this Fall.

Pallets are easy to make and can be cut into any shape for any season. 


A pumpkin shape is an easy shape to start.
