How to make it
Step 1:
Cut a hole in the pumpkin the size of the jam jar. Scoop out the contents of the pumpkin with the spoon so that the jam jar fits into it completely.

Step 2:
Spray glue onto small parts of the pumpkin and carefully stick the gold leaf onto this. Use the brush to carefully ‘sweep’ the gold leaf onto the pumpkin.

Step 3:
Fill the jam jar with water and, as the finishing touch, place the dahlia in it.
