Materials:
-for one small pumpkin-
Orange paper 5.5in by 8in(half a page)
Green paper 2in by 2.5in
also: scissors, hole puncher, glue/stapler, pencil


Start by cutting out equal sized strips of orange paper. For a small pumpkin we used: 6 strips 8in by .5in, but you can make them whatever size you want!
TIP: If you make more than one, use different colors for each pumpkin to make it more interesting!
Step 1


Now, lay the one of the ends of each paper strip on top of another to create a star(-ish) shape. Glue or staple them together and let them dry.
Punch holes in the ends of the paper strips
Step 2


Roll the green paper strip up tightly
Connect the ends of the orange paper(star) to make a sphere, overlay the holes in the ends and push the green paper roll in.
Reinforce with glue if necessary
TIP: you can also decorate the pumpkin with pipe cleaners
That's it!
Congrats on making a paper pumpkin!!!!
