Steps:

  1. Wrap your wire around circular object, I used a glass bottle. I wrapped around the bottle 13 times, you can do more or less (up to you)
  2. Wire Pumpkin - begin wrapping the wire around a jar
     
    Wire Pumpkin - wrap several times
     
  3. Remove wire from bottle, leave extra wire then cut.
  4. Wire Pumpkin - remove wire from jar leaving a length for the stem and cut
     
  5. Take the shorter end and wrap to make the center of your pumpkin.
  6. Wire Pumpkin - wrap the short end around the circle to create the center of the pumpkin

  9. Open up the circles to achieve your pumpkin shape. Then it is ready to decorate your home! Other suggestions, you can place twinkle LED lights inside, pine cones, fake leaves, etc. inside the pumpkin this would look nice also.
