How to Make

Step 1

Use colourful pipe cleaners to form a round pumpkin shape. Twist and bend them into a ball-like structure, securing them at the top. This will be the base to hold the pumpkin pieces together.

Step 2

Insert orange tissue or crepe paper sections between the pipe cleaner frame. Gently fold or wrap the paper so it fills out the pumpkin shape, creating a 3D effect.

Step 3

Twist green tissue paper into a stem shape and attach it to the top. Then cut out small green leaves and glue them around the base of the stem to complete the top of the pumpkin.

Step 4
