Simple as That

Making Everyday Beautiful

pumpkin faces

Tired of keeping up with the holiday hustle? Enjoy a calm season filled with MORE memories & LESS overwhelm: Join us for 12 Days to a Simpler Holiday Season.

This past friday I was finally feeling ready to start up our weekly craft day again so we dug out what little supplies I had on hand (1 pad of construction paper, 1 gluestick and some crayons to be exact) and we made pumpkin faces.

I made the pumpkin shapes for the kids and cut out a variety of eyes/noses and mouths from black construction paper. The kids had a blast creating their own unique pumpkins.

Imagine the cuteness if these were made from orange/green pattern paper & black cardstock? Maybe a little distress ink around the edges…so many possiblitlies – if you don’t live on an island sans scrapbook supplies that is. 😉

All in all these little pumpkins were a lot of fun for the kids and I happened to enjoy making them as well.

quick to put together + small supply list + easy cleanup = perfect friday craft

  6. I would love to have those fun jack-o-lanterns hanging up in my house. My little ones are all grown now so I don’t have cute little art projects. Thanks for sharing yours.
