Making a Pumpkin Wreath: Decide What Kind of Votive Lights

There are a few different kinds of lights you can use. These are $3 lights so they are very inexpensive and use batteries to work. You can also buy LED votive lights at your dollar store. There are also LED lights that are rechargeable. And there are lights that are on timers which is nice too!

Make a Pumpkin Wreath: Carve Out The Centers

To insert the votives in the pumpkin you need to carve out the center of the foam pumpkins. You can use an xacto knife or even a pair of scissors. Cut a hole in the center of the pumpkin and then use the scissors or a spoon to scoop out enough filling so you can fit the votive candle inside.

Make a Pumpkin Wreath: Attach Pumpkins to Wreath

Instead of hot glueing the pumpkins directly on the wreath, take a pipe cleaner and hot glue it onto the back of the pumpkin, then wrap the pipe cleaners around the wreath and twist them to secure. That way you can reuse the wreath later.
