Vintage Repurposed Teacup Pumpkin
I love using things in unusual ways,
and one of my favourite items to repurpose are vintage teacups.
These colourful teacups were left over from a teacup lamp project that I did a couple of years ago.
I found a vintage baking dish in my stash and simply lined the inside with the teacups.
Like so.
I wound some copper wire around a pencil to make curliques...
and I wrapped the ends around the small vintage screwdriver that I was using for the pumpkin stem.
And here it is all done in about 10 minutes. I think the copper wire finishes it off nicely. Such a quick and easy project to add a little fun into my fall decor, and because nothing was attached permanently I can easily take this apart.
