This document provides 9 easy steps to create a cute pumpkin decoration using an orange painted glass bottle, black paint, jute string, and Mod Podge. The steps include painting the bottle orange and outlining and filling in a pumpkin face with black paint. Next, Mod Podge is applied below the bottle's rim and jute string is wrapped around while twisting the bottle. The string is pressed together and more Mod Podge seals it. When dry, the pumpkin bottle decoration is complete.

1. Create Cute Pumpkin
Decor in Nine Easy Steps!

2. • One clear glass bottle
• Orange Paint
• Black Paint
• Mod Podge
• Jute String
• Sponge Brush
• Small brush

3. • Take your orange paint and sponge brush and
apply one coat of paint. Let this dry
completely before moving onto the next step.

4. • Once the orange paint is
completely dry it is time to paint
your face.
Take your small brush and black paint,
decide how far down you want to go,
then begin to slowly outline your
pumpkin face with the black paint.

5. • Once your face is outlined it is time
to color it in. Use a thick coat for
this.

6. • Once your black paint has dried you are ready to
apply your jute string. Apply a thick coat of Mod
Podge below the ridge at the top of the bottle. The
Mod Podge will dry clear.
• The easiest way to apply the string is to sit your
bottle upright, press the beginning of your string to
the top of the bottle and start twisting your bottle
so that the string wraps around.
• Use your fingers to push the string together to help
close the gaps.

7. • Keep applying Mod Podge to your glass with the tip
of your sponge to finish up wrapping your string.
• To get the end of the string to stay down, apply a
thick layer of Mod Podge to the glass and string to
get it to stay and press it down against the glass.
• Let dry completely
