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
