Create a fun and colorful pumpkin craft with pipe cleaners and pony beads. This activity is perfect for kids and can be a great addition to your fall or Halloween decorations. Here’s how to make it:
Materials You’ll Need:
›› orange, green and brown pipe cleaners
›› orange pony beads (varying colors if possible)
Instructions:
›› Take 6-7 pipe cleaners and overlap them in their center. Twist them together at the center to form a spider-like shape.
›› Thread pony beads on to the pipe cleaners, leaving a small amount of space at each end.
›› Twist all the ends together to secure the beads.
›› Add green or brown pipe cleaners for the stem and/or vine.
You can also get into the season with some DIY painted pumpkins. Transform plain ceramic pumpkins into works of art that are perfect for decorating your space, adding a touch of fall flair, or even giving as special gifts. These pumpkins feature shades of orange, but you could opt for Halloween colors, rainbow or anything your child wants – let their creativity run wild!
