Another day, another pumpkin! These are real pumpkins, but are not carved, so they should last until Halloween. Hooray! Tiny pumpkin decorating has become a bit of a tradition in our family. The boys tend to go the traditional monster/bad guy route, but I like to mix it up a bit. Last year I glittered a real life pumpkin. That was an interesting choice.
This probably wouldn't be a great project to do (on a real pumpkin) if you're tight with your washi tape. I, on the other hand, seem to have the stuff coming out of my ears, so I felt okay with letting some of it go. All for the good of Halloween.
This is the perfect simple project to outside with your kiddos on a beautiful fall day. It doesn't require too much concentration (which leaves more attention for them), the results are nice and temporary (which, if your Halloween box is like ours, you'll probably appreciate), and it (ideally) uses only materials that you have around the house. Win/win/win!
Supplies
Mini-pumpkin (real or faux)
Many washi tapes
Instructions
- Wrap pumpkin vertically with washi tapes until all orange is covered. Pray that it doesn't get too moldy under there.
Bonus: Jaws pumpkin (and Alex)
