Simple Cut Out Pumpkins
Materials
Orange construction paper
Black construction paper
Scissors
Glue
Directions
- Draw a shape of a pumpkin on orange paper
- Using scissors, cut out the pumpkin shape. Kids be careful!
- Draw your eyes and nose, be creative. I just used triangles because it was a last minute idea.
- Using glue, glue your face pieces to the pumpkin cut-out
I let the girls glue and place the shapes on their own. I had to do some adjusting, but they were proud of they did it on their own! My girls also insisted on placing their pumpkins on our spider web decor.
Ghosts
Materials
Old white t-shirt
Cotton balls
Pipe cleaners
Black permanent marker
Small safety pins
Ribbon or string
Scissors
Directions
- Using an old white t-shirt and scissors, roughly cut out a piece about the size of your two hands, it doesn't have to be perfect
- Place about 3-4 cotton balls in the center of your cut out t-shirt
- Wrap the shirt over the cotton balls and using the piper cleaner as a neck base. You will need to trim the piper cleaner and wrap it carefully to tuck in the sharp edges
- Puff up and poof out the head of the ghost
- Using permanent marker, make a scary face
- To hang your ghost, safety pin the top of the ghost's head and then tie a ribbon or string to the safety pin
Happy Crafting!
