Crafting Tips
What types of paints can I use?
You can use any kind of paint for this project. I like these washable paint pens because they are great for little hands.
What types of glue can I use?
We used a hot glue gun to ensure heavy-duty sticking with just one strip of glue on the back popsicle stick, but you can most definitely use any glue you have in the house.
Step-by-Step Instructions with Pictures
Paint 5 popsicle sticks orange and one stick green, Let dry.
Turn the popsicle sticks over once dry and use a bead of hot glue on the stem stick to glue together.
You can decorate your pumpkins at this point if desired. Make a jack-o-lantern, add pipe cleaner vines, add a magnet to the back – the possibilities are endless.
