Cut your pallet boards into equal-sized slats and assemble them vertically to form a flat pumpkin shape.
Sand the wood lightly, then paint the boards orange, letting some wood grain show through for a rustic look.
Attach a thick wood log or branch to the top center as the stem, securing it with screws or nails.
Tie a burlap bow around the stem to soften the look and add farmhouse charm.
Place your finished pallet pumpkins on a bed of leaves or straw for the perfect autumn display.
