If you follow me on social media, you saw that this summer I received a large 25 lb box of Poly-Fil Polyester Fiber Fill from my friends at Fairfield World as I was tasked with creating a few crafted accessories for a trade show activity. I spent two months creating some fun pieces using this fluffy stuff, but I still have more! I was able to take the pumpkin decorating idea and Poly-Fil to create a Sheep Pumpkin for fall!

DIY Sheep Pumpkin Supplies:

Artificial pumpkin
Poly-Fil Polyester Fiber Fill
Sheep Face Template
Hot Glue
Hot Glue Gun
4 black paper cups
Black Foam Sheet
Google Eyes
Scissors

If you don’t have a white artificial pumpkin to start, paint your pumpkin white as the base.

Cut 4 black paper cups so they will easily sit under the pumpkin as the sheep’s feet.

Cut out the sheep face template, trace onto a black foam sheet and cut out the shape. Glue it onto the stem of the pumpkin and turn it on it’s side. Glue the cups to the bottom of the pumpkin.

Now it’s time to add the fluff! Pull a small clump of Poly-Fil and ball it up so the material stays together. Start covering the pumpkin with these Poly-Fil clumps.
