Instructions
- Take out 36 jenga block pieces. Start by gluing together with the wood glue 6 (sets of 3) and 6 (sets of 2). Allow them to dry for about 30 minutes.
- Next using the scissors or an x-acto knife, cut off the top portion of the champagne cork
- Next using the wood glue, glue together 2 sections of 3 blocks, then on either side glue one section of the 2 blocks and then a single block. I stood them up to dry and to straighten them a little to make sure they were level on the top. Repeat this for the other 2 pumpkins
- Next using the White, Merlot, and Ocean chalk paint, paint each pumpkin. Allow to fully dry, and add another layer or paint if needed
- Next using the hot glue gun, add the champagne corks to the top of the pumpkins. Trim a piece of ribbon and tie around the top of one of the pumpkins.
