I recently won an alchemy bid on Etsy for these velvet pumpkins. I thought it was a lovely idea at the time. I had made a similar pumpkin for my daughters class back in Elementary school. Since then ,I have seen so many of these on the web! I had no idea they were such a "hot" item! I made mine in assorted velvets, velveteens, and velour. I was...ahem...."stumped" for a stump, however. It is not quite pumpkin season here, and I had no idea where to find real stems! I did my standard... I improvised with random materials until I came up with my faux stems for my faux pumpkins! What do you all think?
