DIY Metal Wheel Pumpkin
This cute pumpkin came along almost by accident.
I spotted this metal wheel on the shelf in my basement, grabbed a can of orange spray paint and headed for the yard.
I made a little spray paint platform on top of my garbage can and started spraying.

I do have a paint shelter which works great, but truth be told more often than not I use the garbage can on the side of my house.
It's definitely the most colorful garbage can on the block!
I recently wrote about using a paint shelter.
While I waited for it to dry I sat it on top of a nearby stump.
And here it began... a junky pumpkin in the making!
I looked around for a stick to use as the stem and found the perfect piece of old vine wrapped around an old fence.
I cut off a piece for my stem then added some faux berries and a leaf.
I used E6000 to stick the stem into the wheel then added moss.
I ended up with the perfect outdoor pumpkin. I think this stump is a great place for it so I'm leaving it right where it is!
