This canning jar ring pumpkin is an adorable fall craft that can be completed in under ten minutes. This is where you will find the original design. 🙂
I knew I wanted to create some kind of pumpkin project, and when I saw my canning jar ring wreath that’s been hanging on the back of the front door, (you know, since CHRISTMAS), I got a brilliant idea.
Well, I thought it was brilliant, but you might think it’s lame. Whatever.
I figured, the shape and texture are perfect, why not turn it into a cute little junky pumpkin?
HOW TO MAKE A CANNING JAR RING PUMPKIN
To make the wreath, you just get a bunch of canning jar lids and string them together, tying the string tightly. The original idea came from Funky Junk Interiors.
All of the lids should be the same size.
I just stuck some cinnamon sticks in the center, and added a couple of burlap leaves.
It seriously took me about three minutes.
I thought about spray painting it white or orange, but I actually like the rustic quality of the tarnished gold and silver lids.
What do you think? Totally brilliant?or Totally lame?

Brilliant !!!!!!!!!! (and we ALL have things still hanging up since christmas, so no big deal!) But now I;m curious, what does (did) the wreath look like ??????
just saw it on a friend’s FB, and I like it! Will do it, too!
I LOVE it! But of course I’d say that! Thanks so much for the mention in your post too!
I have a feeling your industrial pumpkin will go viral.. 🙂
Oh my cuteness! LOVE it!
Totally cool! I love it!
Adorbs!!
I think it is great and plan to make one.
I love it, but…they are rings, not lids! The lids are the little flat things that the rings hold on to the jars!
This is one of those “WOW” tutorials. Love how unique and fun this is for fall! Found you on 36th Avenue FB page, and I’m sending my readers your way, too!
