1. Gather the supplies.
You will need: Empty milk jugs, a hot glue gun, orange poster paint, construction paper, scissors, and a covering of some sort for the table.
2. Paint the milk jugs
Pour the orange poster paint into the milk jugs. You can really use any color. You will need to pour in quite a good amount. Then, put the lid on tightly and shake the jug until the entire inside is coated in the orange paint.
3. Painted milk jugs
4. Cut out eyes, nose, mouth, and stem for each pumpkin.
5. Using hot glue, glue the pieces to the outside of the milk jugs. You can use any kind of glue you like, but we like hot glue in our house because it dries quickly. Once that's done, you have milk jug pumpkins!
Happy crafting! :)
Man, I'm terrible at coming up with fun and toddler-appropriate craft ideas. You should do a regular series on this!
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome idea! I just might do that....Matthew loves to cut so that inspires me to find/do anything where he can cut up paper. It makes his day. :)
