new pumpkin idea

This idea has been circulating the blog-o-sphere for a couple weeks now...so I thought I would try it out.





1. Its made from a paperback book. Fold all the pages- one by one- into towards the spine of the book.

2. Then wrap the covers together and secure with a few staples or tape.

3. Work with the pages to get them spread around into a complete circle- tape or glue may be required depending on how exact you want to be.

4. Run out into your backyard and grab a stick- poke it into the center (book spine) of the pumpkin.

I cut the jack-o-lantern faces out of black construction paper and used tape to adhere them.

Its that simple!!!


Here are a few more folding/cutting options you could try!!
