Why This Pumpkin Set Earns Its Place on the Table
This Pumpkin design shows carved jack-o'-lanterns glowing from within, ringed by curled vine tendrils and fallen autumn leaves. The colour work is burnt orange, amber and deep umber against a matte slate background — an overall feel that is warm and mischievous, never busy. Pumpkin season is short. A set that lives on the table from the first chilly morning to the last slice of pie earns its shelf space. What sets this one apart is the treatment: The lantern glow is built from layered amber drills, so the faces catch light differently depending on where the coaster sits. It is built for hosts who decorate early and want the table to look intentional by October 1 — 8 coasters covers the whole table in one purchase, and the finish is matched across every piece so they read as a set rather than an assortment. Designed for autumn coffee table, it holds up as decor rather than something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference BD521.
A DOTZSO kit is designed so the making is restful and the finished piece earns a place in the room. The kit arrives with a colour-printed canvas, DOTZSO resin drills, a tray, a comfort-grip pen, a wax caddy and step-by-step pictorial guidance.

- Comfort-grip applicator pen

How to Make It
- Unroll the canvas on a flat surface and let it settle under something weighted if it has been rolled tight.
- Find the legend strip and match the first symbol to its drill colour.
- Press the pen tip into the wax caddy, then touch it to a drill — the drill lifts and stays on the tip.
- Set the drill onto the matching printed symbol and press lightly. Work one colour block at a time rather than jumping around the canvas.
- Continue until the design is complete, then press the finished surface flat with a book for an hour to seat every drill.
Work through the set at whatever pace suits, then leave it out on the table where it will actually get used.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Pumpkin coaster set ship with the mounting hardware included?
Yes. The Pumpkin coaster set ships complete with the stand shown in the product images, so the coasters have somewhere to live when they are not in use, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference BD521.
Will the Pumpkin coaster set look the same after a year of use?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Pumpkin design holds under normal use. The cork-backed base is what stops condensation reaching the table, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. Sealing properly is the whole of the maintenance story here.
Is the Pumpkin coaster set easy to wipe down?
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not submerge them or put them through a dishwasher — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Pumpkin palette, deep orange rind and burnt umber shading against a smoky grey ground tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. Handle the Pumpkin piece with dry hands where possible.
How long is the Pumpkin design from start to finish?
Roughly 30 to 45 minutes each for most people, so a full set is a few evenings rather than one sitting. The Pumpkin design is seasonal and warm, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. The Pumpkin design is paced, not rushed.
What would a beginner find tricky on the Pumpkin design?
Yes. The symbol key is printed directly on the cork-backed base and the pictorial instructions walk through the whole process, so no prior diamond painting experience is needed. The Pumpkin layout is seasonal and warm, which helps on a first attempt. The kit includes everything needed to start.

Such a fun format – one coaster at a time, no big commitment. Each color was packed generously, I had plenty to spare. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. Nice to have something that gets me off my phone for a while. We actually use them every day, not just display them. I’ll be ordering more.

Ordered this for a quiet weekend and it delivered. It’s a lovely take on a spooky design. The adhesive held firmly without any lifting at the edges. I work on it after dinner and it helps me switch off. They look like a proper matched set. Happy customer here.

I do these while dinner is in the oven. Great little time filler. There were extra drills left over in every color when I finished. They’re a hit whenever we have people over. Loved it, no regrets.

This arrived in perfect condition, nothing bent or spilled. The Halloween motif is what drew me in. The cork base means no scratches and no condensation rings. The adhesive is plenty sticky, the drills stay exactly where I put them. I work on it while listening to an audiobook and the time just disappears. They stack away neatly when I want the table clear. Definitely recommend giving it a try.

Perfect little kit – not overwhelming like a full canvas. Drill colors are well separated, no squinting to tell two shades apart. Everything was bagged and labeled, so setup took five minutes.
