DIY Botanical Pumpkins
October 24, 2026. Get ready for a hands-on fall favorite where creativity blooms! In this family-friendly workshop, transform pumpkins into one-of-a-kind works of art, using pressed flowers, leaves, and a little bit of Mod Podge magic. Layer vibrant botanicals, experiment with patterns, and design a pumpkin that’s anything but ordinary. Along the way, you’ll pick up simple techniques for working with natural materials and leave with a beautiful, display-ready creation. Perfect for all skill levels. Potentially a little messy, and a whole lot of fun!
