Introduction

Fall is here and pumpkins are everywhere. So why not have a pumpkin trivet? The color that is being used for the pumpkin is the Corian® color Adobe, which is closest in color to a real pumpkin. The stem is made from the color Kiwi, though any green would work just as well.

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1. Corian® has a definite top and bottom. The top is generally smoother than the bottom, and the bottom might have writing on it (as illustrated in the photo).

Step 2. Place masking tape on the surface of both the Adobe and Kiwi pieces. This will keep your blade from overheating when you are cutting the material. Use 3M Spray Mount™ artist's adhesive to adhere the pattern to the surface.
