* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per pumpkin}
* School Glue
* Orange Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Orange/Black/Brown/Green Cardstock
* Kid Friendly Craft Scissors
optional – ribbon, glitter, rhinestones

Directions:

* First grab three popsicle sticks {three per jack-o-lantern} and glue them together to look like a triangle. Set aside to let it dry completely. Repeat for each piece you want to make.
* Now grab your orange craft paint. Go ahead and paint the popsicle stick design completely orange. Set aside again, to let it dry completely.
* While that is drying, grab your orange cardstock and cut a triangular shape that will be placed within the popsicle stick design. At this time, you should also cut out other jack-o-lantern facial features from the black cardstock, as well as a stem/leaf from the remaining.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Jack-O-Lanterns – have children glue on their cardstock pieces to the popsicle stick shape. Finish off with any other embellishments they see fit & set aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
