Don’t you just love pumpkins? Here are some quick, easy, and frugal pumpkin craft projects for the kids (and grown up too!) Enjoy!!
This pumpkin craft uses rolled up strips of construction paper. Find out how at Kaboose!
This adorable pumpkin uses toilet paper for stuffing! See the complete instructions at Craft Elf.
Grab some orange yarn and whip up a bunch of these mini pumpkins from Make and Takes!
I think these paper pumpkins would make fantastic decorations — especially hanging from the ceiling! See A-Z Learning Bug for complete instructions.
Have fun!!
Do you have a pumpkin craft you would like to share with us? Feel free to link up in the comments — we would LOVE to see it!!
I love decorating this time of year. These are all so cute. Thanks.
Me too! Love the Fall!!!
I don’t yet, but I will soon.
Ooo…. looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with!
Cute! The first one is my favorite!
Yay! 🙂
We made jack-o-lanterns using frozen orange pumpkin ice cubes. It was pretty fun!
I really want to make the yarn pumpkins from make and takes.

That is so clever! I bet they were a lot of fun to make!
So fun and festive. I especially love the yarn pumpkin. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Mandi! I need to try to dig up some orange yarn… I know I have some around here somewhere. They look so cute! 🙂
I like the paper pumpkin that can hang from the ceiling.
I’ll pass this to my daughters and see if anything shows up around the house.
Fun!!

Sorry about the last #FAIL comment — my iPhone ate it.
It’s beautiful!! And I think we still have a few empty baby food jars lying around too!
Thank you! The kids love doing it…I think it will be fun to see how they design them differently each year.
I am going to have to try these with JDaniel.
That makes me so happy! Have fun!!!
I love the one from Kaboose, it reminds me of Quilling!
PS: Meant to tell you how I happy I was to hear of your feature in the newspaper:)
Thanks so much, Katie! It was very exciting!!! 🙂
Dear Valerie, last year we made this pumpkin with my preschoolers. I often visit your blog for ideas.Thank you sharing them all the time.
