Dryer Vent Pumpkins

I thought I'd give a tutorial on how to make the dryer vent pumpkins I featured in my front porch decor post. 

I got the idea from Courtney at A Diamond in the Stuff. She's made so many variations on the original - you should go check it out.

I used 6" and 4" plastic dryer vent to make two different sizes of pumpkin. I cut the vent with scissors and wire cutters, curved it around on itself, and hot glued the open ends together.  

I then spray painted them "Cinnamon" by Krylon. The stem is a cinnamon stick, and some moss and a leaf substitute for the real thing.

This is a really easy project - the hardest part is waiting for the paint to dry. I printed out "Boo" signs and glued them to two of of the small pumpkins to take to work.
