3D Paper Pumpkin Mobile

Sissy and I put together another cute Halloween craft today... 3D paper pumpkins!  They go great with our pumpkin decorating theme this year, only took a few minutes, and look really cute!




3D Paper Pumpkins
Supplies:

• Orange, green and brown construction paper
• Scissors
• Stapler
• String to hang 

Method:

1. Cut the orange paper into 8 even strips.  Cut a 4 in by 1 in piece of brown paper and a leaf from the green paper.
   
2. Cross the tips of the orange strips, overlapping the ends by 1 inch until you form a circle.  Staple.
   
3. Cross the bottom ends of the strips in the same manner. Staple. Tip: if you have trouble getting the stapler in the bottom, press the pumpkin down on the table to flatten it out a bit.  You should then be able to sneak the stapler in.
   
   
4. Fold the brown piece in half and fold a half inch foot near the bottom.  Place the leaf over the foot and staple to the top of the pumpkin.
   
5. String up several pumpkins for a 3D pumpkin mobile.
