    How about the colored section of the Sunday comics. I also use that for wrapping children and young adults gifts as every one likes to read the comics.

    I just made this, what a coincedence. I covered my pumpkin with animal print and used that curly stuff you use in gift bags on the top and it looks like hair. Put shiny round discs for eyes, nose and mouth and it looks pretty cute.

    Hey Eclectically Vintage - Thanks - I have a pumpkin fetish and use them to decorate when it isn't Halloween. Play date sounds good (ha)!

    Thanks for this! I saved this because I have a bunch of these Dollar store pumpkins I bought on clearane last year knowing I could do something with them! Now I know what! I am going to start on one today and see what happens!

    Loving it! So creative and such an improvement on the jack-o-lantern designs. This way, we can use the pumpkins well into fall, not just for Halloween. Thanks.
