Do you love to craft with laser wood cutouts and shapes but sometimes need a little inspiration? Well we’ll show you how to make this stunning floral pumpkin wood cutout craft with our step-by-step tutorial. It’s easier than you think!
Crafting with Laser Cut Wood Shapes
There are plenty of wood cutout shapes available to purchase at the craft store especially around the holidays. But we’ve taken crafting to the next level with our own laser cut wood shapes and the xTool M1 laser cutter and engraver. We have been crafting up a storm and I couldn’t wait to make a pretty wood pumpkin to go with my fall decor.
This Hello Pumpkin Floral cut file is available in our Craft Habit Graphics SVG shop where we create and sell loads of digital files for crafting including laser cut ready files. If you are not familiar with the xTool M1, we have a full review and YouTube unboxing video of the machine.
I love how this floral pumpkin cutout craft turned out! The soft colors and diamond dust take this simple craft to the next level. Plus, because the pumpkin is on a stand, it makes the best shelf sitter or tiered tray craft. Let’s get to the DIY tutorial so you can make your own wood pumpkin.

How to Craft with a Floral Pumpkin Laser Wood Cutout
I shared the tutorial for this floral pumpkin craft on a Facebook Live which you can watch here or if you prefer the photo tutorial, continue reading below.
Paint the pumpkin part of the cut out with white paint.
Use brush strokes of blue paint to accentuate the ribs of the pumpkin.
Next, paint the stem with green paint.
Take some gold paint and add buds onto the stems.
Paint the pistil of the flower with yellow paint.
Use white and teal to paint one of the flower petals.
Use the red color to paint the other flower petals.
Cover the flowers with mod podge and apply some diamond dust. Shake off any excess and let it dry. You can also use glitter if you don’t have diamon dust. And remember, take extra care when working with diamon dust and ensure no loose pieces are left on your surface.
Paint the “hello pumpkin” cut out with gold paint.
Once dry, hot glue the flowers and phrase onto the pumpkin.
And with that, the craft is complete!
What do you think of this beautiful floral wood pumpkin? The diamond dust really makes it sparkle. Are you ready to make your own? Once you begin creating with a laser cutter, you will be amazed at how many things you can make.
