Simple Book Pumpkin
Creating a Simple Book Pumpkin is a delightful way to add a touch of whimsy to your fall decor! To make one, you start by selecting an old book that you're ready to repurpose. Then, carefully fold the pages in a way that forms the shape of a pumpkin. Feel free to get creative with the folding pattern to give your pumpkin a unique look! Once you've achieved the desired shape, add a twig or cinnamon stick as the stem, and maybe even some green ribbon or leaves for added flair. This charming DIY project is a fun way to embrace the cozy spirit of autumn and showcase your crafty side. Happy crafting!
What you’ll need:
First, draw the shape of the pumpkin. This can either be done by hand or by using a bowl as a guide.
Next, hand sketch the shape of the stem – above is a picture that shows two ways you could sketch the stem, like a square or like a triangle.
Use the X-ACTO Knife to cut out the top pages of the shape. Continue to cut until all of the pages are in the shape of the pumpkin.
Now you can either leave the pumpkin plain or add color on the edges with the orange and brown markers.
