I love, love, love Halloween. Every year we host a super fun Halloween party and this year I decided I needed some new decorations. Since they can certainly be costly, I decided to make my own. Today I’m sharing with you, how to make your own NO Mess Decorative Pumpkins!

These fun pumpkins were so easy to make. I started with 3 plain pumpkins purchased from Michael’s and Target.

Each of the supplies and decorations to make these NO Mess Decorative Pumpkins were purchased at Michael’s too.

You’ll need the following supplies to make your own NO Mess Decorative Pumpkins:

Glue
Candy Buttons
Spider Stickers
Eyeball Stickers
Glitter gems

I started with the white pumpkin and the candy buttons. I cut the strips into single rows and put a thin layer of glue around the stem. I attached the strips of candy buttons to the glue.

I taped the end of the strips to the bottom of the pumpkin, then I added the spiders with google eyes to it.

Next up on the NO Mess Decorative Pumpkins list was the black pumpkin. This one was simple, I just glued the google eyes all around it.

I randomly selected the size and color and just glued them on. I didn’t over think it, which sometimes works best when crafting.

Moving on to the orange pumpkin, I added three spiders and glitter gems that reminded me of eyeballs.

Here are all three of them together. I just love how they turned out!

Even better, these NO Mess Decorative Pumpkins were very easy to make and I didn’t make a lot of mess. This would project to let the kids do or even a great activity for a Halloween party!
