How to Make a Paper Pumpkin Craft

Step 1

Cut three long strips about 1 inch wide with the orange paper. Use craft scissors that have a designed edge for an extra added touch to this fall craft idea.

Step 2

Lay the strips on the table forming an asterisk shape with the centers lined up. Make sure they are evenly spaced apart.

Step 3

Now glue or tape the strips together one at a time.

Step 4

Once the glue is dry, take the top strip and bring the two edges together. Tape or glue in place at the top.

Step 5

Repeat step 4 for the remaining two strips.

Step 6

Cut off a small length of the rope ribbon. Glue this on top of the pumpkin to create a stem.

Step 7

Lastly add some fall colored leaves on top of the pumpkin near the stem. The leaves can be real or plastic.

Tip: If using real leaves you will want to clear coat them to help preserve them.
