Popsicle Stick Pumpkin Patch Frame Supplies:

* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {four per pumpkin frame craft}
* Hot Glue Gun {adult use only, please!}
* Orange Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Paper Craft Scissors
* Brown Colored Cardstock
* Green Pipe Cleaner {one per pumpkin frame craft}
* 4×6″ Color Picture

Directions:

* ADULTS ONLY – Get the glue gun hot and ready. Grab FOUR popsicle sticks.
* Hot glue the base of your pumpkin patch frame, in a square formation. This way you have an opening in the center for your picture.
* Repeat for each pumpkin picture picture frame you want to make.
* Set it aside to let it dry a bit {instead of a hot glue gun, you can also use school glue but drying time takes longer.}
* Squirt some orange craft paint on a paper plate.
* Have children paint the front of their popsicle stick shape completely orange.
* Set it aside.
* Next cut out a small brown stem from your cardstock. You can also cut out a small paper piece to write “pumpkin patch – year” on it, if desired. I did mine in white.
* Glue those to the front of the popsicle stick design in their designated spot.
* Grab your green pipe cleaner.
* Cut it in half with scissors.
* Take one half and curl it with your fingers slightly.
* Go ahead and hot glue it near the paper stem of the craft.
* Now let it all dry completely before securing your printed picture to the back of the popsicle stick stick frame {you can do this step with school glue or tape.} You might have to trim your picture down a little to make it fit in the frame. Just use your scissors.
* Once done decorating the popsicle stick pumpkin frame and it’s completely dry, display it proudly for ALL to see. You can either prop it on a shelf as is or hot glue ribbon and/or magnets to the back!
* Don’t forget to snap a few pictures of your child’s craft stick pumpkin frame to share with us on your social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
