White Cardstock Paper

Orange Craft Paint
Foam Paint Brush
Black Craft Paint
Small Paint Brush

Directions:

First print out our blank ice cream cone printable. You only need ONE print per pumpkin ice cream craft.
Once you have it printed out, grab your choice of coloring medium and color in the ice cream cone design completely brown.
When done coloring, go ahead and trim out the ice cream cone shape with your scissors.
Discard excess paper and set aside your decorated paper cone till later.
Now grab your small paper plate and your orange craft paint.
Squirt a small amount of craft paint in the center of the paper plate.
Use the foam paint brush to move the paint around, until the paper plate is completely covered.
Now grab your small paint brush and black craft paint.
Dip the tip of your small paint brush into the black craft paint bottle. You don’t need a lot of paint on the brush.
Paint a few lines on the orange painted paper plate to give the “pumpkin” some dimension.
Next up – the “sprinkles” of the craft. Grab your glitter glue.
Squirt/draw on some lines of glitter glue on the top your painted paper plate.
When done decorating the paper plate, set it aside to allow it to dry a bit.
Now grab your sheet of brown cardstock paper, as well as the scissors.
Cut out a medium sized rectangle “stem” for on top of the pumpkin cone. This will be the “cherry” of the craft.
Set it aside.
Now grab your green pipe cleaner.
Twirl it around your finger to make what I call the “licorice vine” for the pumpkin ice cream cone.
Now the LAST STEP! To finish off the pumpkin ice cream cone craft, grab your cone paper piece cutout, the decorated {dry} paper plate, the embellishments and your stapler.
Staple the decorated paper plate to the ice cream cone cutout, as well the cardstock stem and pipe cleaner vine.
And that’s it! Add even more embellishments you see fit {maybe some small bows or stickers} and display proudly for ALL to see!
