GIANT EVIL PUMPKIN TREE TUTORIAL - 6.5ft Tall!

[@rebeccahefner3559]

Your neighbors must watch you daily to see what you're up to next! 😆 I'm sure they get as much joy out of your decorations as you do. Thanks again for the inspiration.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

I hope they do, I really love my neighbors

[@carmenruiz2636]

Well executed, I love how this turned out. Those leaves are a such a nice touch.

[@benjaminnnkt]

it reminded me of the Pokemon Trevenant!! turned out so good Isaac!

Looks awesome and is unique! One of the few Halloween props that looks better in the daylight IMO!

I agree! Love it more in the day

Nice work, could you do Baby Groot that dance and Big Groot too would be awesome ❤

[@madzabinga8382]

Hey Isaac! So, Sam's Club has this 8ft tall scarecrow that is currently all sold out. I am thinking about recreating it using your tutorials, and just adapting them to make a scarecrow. Wish me luck! I think the hardest part will be the lighting. Not sure if I will be able to do the glowing eyes or not. Planning on thrifting all the clothes, and just patching together the overalls from multiple pairs of thrifted jeans.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

This sounds amazing! Hope my tutorial helps! What are you using for a face?

[@madzabinga8382]

@@IsaacAlexanderDIY I am not sure. It needs to be big so the proportions are right. It will take some creative thinking!

Bought ‘Little Olive & the Wally Bat’ for my grandbaby. It’s a cute short story. I think he’ll enjoy it and the illustrations. 👍🏼.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Thank you so much for letting me know Azalea! It’s always a great day when someone tells me they bought the book. I hope your grandbaby enjoys it! If you do get a chance, would love it if you could leave an Amazon review. For independent authors such as myself, Amazon reviews go to such a long way

[@joedevitto6113]

This was really nice to see how it was built , lots of time and designing went into it . love these projects Looks Amazing ~

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Yes indeed! Thank you Joe

[@ashmototherapy]

I'm watching your videos back to back and I'm doing a deer skull monster on a tree I have in my yard. This is perfect to help give me ideas on building it. I had so many fallen branches from a storm in NY here so to save $$ I'm going to use actual branches, glue and drill pieces together. It'll be a heavy piece but excited to try it out. Thank you for all these amazing ideas you're awesome!!

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Sounds like a great idea you got going! Thanks for watching and I hope the deer skull comes out awesome

[@MarkAHotop]

Wondering if something like Great Stuff or a spray foam of some sort would adhere to the pvc pipe instead of using papier-mache. Definitely looking at doing this for this year's decorations, but needs to be really weatherproof to last 5 weeks out in the yard. Thinking of drilling a hole at the base and running a cord up through the trunk to a C7/C9 bulb in the foam pumpkin.

[@RhettyforHistory]

Great job! I thought I would let you know thqt your links for your cards are not working again.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Oh gosh 😫. This has been so frustrating. For some people, the links will work but for other people they don’t see a pop-up. For example, my sister said she can’t see the pop-ups but my best friend can see it from his phone.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

If you go to my KZbin channel page, you’ll be able to find all the videos that I’ve mentioned before. I don’t know what’s going on with KZbin and why some people can see the links and others cannot

Absolutely creative and genius!! Turned out to be an amazing DIY Halloween masterpiece, well done bestie!!! 🎃🎃🎃

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Thank you so much Tigri

[@mrturbo8001]

Isaac. If you fill the PVC with salt/sand you can heat it up with a heat gun and freely bend and distort it for more natural-looking curves. The sand can be removed after you have shaped the pipe. The sand keeps the pipe from collapsing.

[@alexander2685]

Your so so talented more so than elon musk hi from texas.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Haha oh my

[@TheCrystalroses]

I made something similar to this but instead of using Paper towel I used strips of burlap I then painted it down with clear lock Mixed with exterior paint. Mine are about 4 years old. And look wonderful outside. The areas where I place them I put another container down into the ground which I change out seasonal by seasonal with plants or a Christmas tree. But all I have to do is drop these guys in and they look great. I love the idea of using the foam in the bottom. So I'm going to take out my moss mixture and try that this year. Great video.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Oh that’s awesome that you used burlap! I wanna try that.

[@ericcarl5253]

This thing looks great but how does it really hold up outside in the weather and rain? And how do you store these things? Where on earth do you put them

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Hey Eric, it’s been out since the middle of September and it’s rained and been stormy and been sunny and it’s doing just fine. The only thing I’ve noticed is the moss has faded from its deep green to a lighter shade of green. I have three storage sheds that I built

Awesome. Would you make a video on ski lift Christmas decoration that actually moves please

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Maybe one

[@Jayytasmic]

I need this. Is it Halloween yet?!?

[@ArmouryTerrain]

I love the concept and I think that you have achieved a nice finish. To me the main stalk seems a little thin, and I feel that the shoulder pipes should be less wide with maybe 45 instead of 90 degrees. It just looks a little square to me. This is just my opinion on the design - I do like the overall effect.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

I actually have to agree with you. In hindsight, I should have softened the shoulders by using a heat gun to change the shape or using a different angle. Lastly, I agree with you on the thickness of the stem. I should’ve continued to have made the trunk a little bit thicker at the beginning. I have never made anything like this before so it was definitely a lot trial and error. But I appreciate the feedback. I’ll know what to do differently for my next one

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

Very cool I like the hands, just wondering about it being outdoors in the rain for a month?! With that glue …

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

It’s wood glue so it’s consistency is different than an indoor glue. It should be fine in the rain

[@Jeff_M_1969]

I have to say, I don’t really do “mache” any longer…moved on to plastic corpsing long ago, but I will try this with the wood glue and shop towels on one of this years projects. “Skinning” I believe it’s called. I’m interested to see how far I can take this. Glad I watched. Have a great season Isaac! 🎃

[@XenaWarrior95]

How long did it take u to do the paper towel and glue?

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

It was about 1-2 hours total wrapping everything. But to be safe I would say a good 2 hours

[@ericnegron4890]

i like it but to it looks to thin. if you add pool nodules it will look better

[@canovanas78]

I placed some screws on the shoulders so they can be removed for storage. Covering with details to keep them from being too visible.

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

Great tip!

[@GlassCaedmon]

I don’t think I’ve seen anything quite like this, kinda reminds me of an organic jack skellington as the pumpkin king

How do fair with the weather if it pours etc? And ever had anyone destroy or steal anything from displays? They Look insane

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

The items that I make are meant for the outdoors. My props always last me a long time. Also, I have never had anything stolen, but crime can happen at any time and any place. Just because nothing has ever been stolen doesnt mean that it couldn’t happen.

[@aedansilva1114]

@@IsaacAlexanderDIY so is it waterproof like this? I think you said you're putting it indoors. Is there a way to adapt it to be waterproof if its not? I plan to put it in the porch but just in case. This is so awesome thank you

[@IsaacAlexanderDIY]

@@aedansilva1114 as stated in the previous comment, these items are created for the outdoor use, but it isn’t waterproof, it is weatherproof. It will withstand rain and sun but obviously cannot be submerged in water or be maintained in a wet environment for days on end. Making this pumpkin tree exactly how I detailed will work on your porch or patio just fine. We are using wood glue, PVC, and exterior paint, it’ll be fine outside

[@aedansilva1114]

@@IsaacAlexanderDIY I wasn't sure if the previous comment was a typo, since you clearly state that you're using it for indoor use. I just wanted to make sure.
