Main Street Mickey Pumpkin Tutorial
Disney lovers rejoice! This Mickey pumpkin is a great way to share your love of Disney over the autumn season. It’s an easy, no-carve Jack O’ Lantern that your kids will adore and can be saved and displayed year after year. Use faux foam pumpkins, craft paint and a little bit of modeling clay to make this Main Street Mickey pumpkin replica.
One of the most iconic images at Disney during Halloween is the Mickey themed pumpkin. When you enter the Magical Kingdom park there is a giant Mickey Mouse Jack O’Lantern that greets you on Main Street.
I decided to make my own mini version of the Main Street Mickey pumpkin. Use a 10 inch faux foam pumpkin as the base for the project.
Use yellow craft paint and paint or stencil Mickey's face onto the front of the pumpkin. Do two coats, letting it dry between coats. Outline with black permanent marker.
Make a small leaf and vine out of polymer clay and glue it to the pumpkin. Attach two bamboo skewers to the sides of the pumpkin where you want the ears to go.
Place two smaller pumpkins that you have painted orange onto the bamboo skewers. Display your Mickey Pumpkin for all to see!
