Happy November! Today we’re happy to share this cute Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice printable with you. We made this last Fall at one of our Wood Connection classes and it was super popular. We thought we’d bring it back and offer the printable in our shop to everyone!
Below you’ll find the simple tutorial for this whole project and the link to download the printable. All the wood and paper is from the Wood Connection.
Here’s what you need:
- 4 x 6 wood block with hole and finial
- Small candle cup
- Tall pumpkin with overlay
- Small pumpkin with overlay
- Orange paint (Terra Cotta is the color we used)
- Light Ivory paint
- Fall patterned paper
- Wood glue
- Sanding block
- Pumpkin Spice Printable

(You can of course, use the printable however you would like- frame it, make it into a card, glue it to a wood block, hang it on your fridge…..whatever suits you.:)
Step 1-Paint:
Start by painting the sides, back and about 1/4 inch of the front of the block, the large pumpkin and the large pumpkin bead board overlay.
This picture is the front of the pumpkin and block so you can see about how much to paint on the fronts.Then paint the remaining items light ivory-the finial (the little peg that goes in the top hole), the candle cup (base piece), the small pumpkin, and the small pumpkin bead board overlay.
Step 2- Paper:
Trace the pumpkins onto the patterned paper and cut out.
Paint the front of each pumpkin with wood glue, making sure to get all the way the edges.
Place the paper over the glue and press down from the middle out. Lay the pumpkin face down as it dries.
Now you can use a sanding block or some sand paper to sand away any excess paper around the edges. You can also sand the edges of the bead board overlay.
This is BEFORE sanding the edges and then AFTER sanding the edges. It really creates a seamless look.
Now glue the bead board overlays onto the pumpkins. Let dry.
Step 3- Printable:

We like to send ours to a photo lab (like Costco or Walmart) and print it as a 4 x 6 photo. The photo paper is higher quality than card stock and holds up really well when glued to a wood block.
Once you have your print, glue it onto the front of the block the same way we glued the paper onto the pumpkins. Make sure to glue the print on the block with the hole in the block UP! Then glue the candle cup onto the bottom of the block, and place the finial on top.
That’s it! So cute! We hope you have fun the pumpkin printable!
