Get this look with an old pair of tights. Any tights can be used, but ones with a pattern can add a simple twist to the traditional pumpkin. Simply cut the tights in half, and put a pumpkin through each leg. You can then wrap the excess around the stem of the pumpkin and make a knot. This look is simple and can even be used on smaller pumpkins, perfect for kitchen decor.
