☘️ A pumpkin with a secret (it’s coasters)

This adorable fall pumpkin is secretly a coaster holder. Pull the charming curly stems out of the center and they turn into leaf shaped coasters.

It’s a quick, fun project that only needs two balls of yarn, perfect for sprucing up your fall decor or gifting to someone you love.
