Get creative this fall! Let your little ones show their artistic side and make this fun thumbprint jack-o-lantern pumpkin frame craft for a Halloween-themed keepsake.
Fingerprint Covered Pumpkin Frame
If you haven’t grabbed a BIG stack of $1 wooden frames from your local Michaels yet, you probably should put them on your shopping list because they are a necessity this time of year. {Not to mention, they are also oh-so-versatile too for today’s thumbprint pumpkin frame idea!}
Like I mentioned above, these wood frames are only ONE DOLLAR so the investment is pretty low but they are still really nice and sturdy.
Plus with our crafty idea today, kids will love the “independency” of creating their own one-of-a-kind picture decor piece AND they can gift it too!
So what are you waiting for? You can make this bewitching craft piece with your child too! Find the full tutorial and supply list below for this thumbprint pumpkin frame DIY idea!
Happy crafting this Halloween season, my friends!!! Please don’t forget to share pictures of the finished fingerprint jack-o-lantern frame on our Facebook page or in our group! #gluedtomycrafts

CRAFT SUPPLIES:
- Large Wood Frame
- Orange Ink Pad {or craft paint}
- Thin Tip Sharpie Markers
DIRECTIONS:
- First have children add their orange “thumbprints” all over the wood frame {really pressing it down, in multiple spots on the frame}
- Clean off excess ink from fingers with a baby wipe.
- Once they are done adding the thumbprint “pumpkins” on the wood frame, have them use the thin-tip Sharpies to draw on the jack-o-lantern embellishments.
- To finish off, add your child’s picture in the center of the frame and display their thumbprint pumpkin frame masterpiece proudly for all to see!!!

ONE MORE CRAFTY IDEA:
