Make a pretty pumpkin

Turn inexpensive vinyl ducting into a creative Halloween decoration that’s easy to make.

By Catherine Nash, HappyMailForKids.ca

Instructions

To make:
1. Measure and cut 30 to 40 cm of flexible vinyl ducting (the longer the piece the larger the pumpkin will be).

2. Cut lengthwise, using a wire cutter. (Be careful, the wire is sharp.)

3. Stretch out the flexible vinyl ducting. Join the two ends to make a ball, staple together leaving a small hole on top to place the stem.

4. Paint your pumpkin orange; let dry.

5. Fold a piece of brown construction paper to make a stem; add the leaf.
