Paper Pumpkin
You will need:
Pages from an old book, a Stanly knife, scissors, pencil, orange paint, green
and brown paint (or a twig) PVA glue
Using some of the pages from the book you can make these pumpkins any size
you wish.
If you wish to make a large pumpkin, draw a pumpkin shape on the pages and
cut out using a Stanley knife.
To make a smaller pumpkin just remove a few pages but make sure you still
have the spine attached and draw the pumpkin shape from the template.
Once your pumpkin is cut out, sand the edges of the pages to make smooth.
, Paint the page edges orange but do not get too wet. Once the paint is dry,
fold the book back at the spine so the first and last page meet. Glue these
pages together to form a paper pumpkin. Cut two leaves from a few pages,
glue the pages together once dry paint the edges green, when dry stick to top
of pumpkin. Stick a twig or rolled up page of the book glue end when dry paint
the edges brown attach to the top of the pumpkin.
Templates can be used for smaller pumpkins. Just enlarge template for larger
ones.
