I found these great craft pumpkins at my Dollar Tree, but I know that sometimes they run out of things before the season is over. So, if you don’t see any in your local store, try the link in the Supplies list above for an option on Amazon.

I also found this great pumpkin plate at my local Dollar store, but again, you can find an option on Amazon. But the $1.25 price point is super hard to beat!

Instructions for DIY Pumpkin Platter:

  1. I used a sharp knife and simply cut along the top of the pumpkin.

That’s It! Seriously, does it get any quicker and easier than that?

This project creates an adorable serving plate that adds visual interest to your serving area due to the added height and cuteness of the pumpkin.
