Its great. No glue, no pins, nothing else needed!!

Steps:

  1. Open the roll of tissue, hold and unravel about 12 times. Then very gently, start loosely and rewrap the roll by fluffing the paper as you wrap and turn the roll evenly. You will end up with a fluffy roll of paper.

  11. Take a thick piece of a branch to use for a stem. Cut about a 6 inch long piece of green ribbon and tie together the stem, a few thin twigs, and a small bunch of corn stalks. Tie the ribbon in a tight knot and push it a 1/4" into the pumpkin.
