I thought it would be good to make a thread for any Halloween crafts that yall may make!! Weather that's painting/carving pumpkins, crochet, drawings or anything else! Share them with us, we would love to see 🎃👻

I'll start us off with some DIY pumpkins I'm obsessed with making at the moment!

    @ella
    Ahaha nearer to Christmas I'm gonna make little snowmen hopefully!

    They're made from the cardboard from loo roll and fluffy yarn and then I used some paper which I coloured in brown abd rolled up for the stems altho you can also just use twigs

    Here's a video showing what I did:

    Oh wow @Chloe234 those are amazing!. Could you do the same potentially with regular yarn (say a DK weight yarn?). I've been making a small pumpkin but using knitting (magic loop). I might crochet some more eventhough I got a huge assortment of them at the moment.

    Im guessing the green eyed black cat is yours because you have a black cat? :D these look really amazing though to paint. I would love to carve a pumpkin someday because I have never carved a pumpkin before neither have I painted one.

    Aw thank you I'll try and find the video which I learnt how to make them and stick here in the thread if any fellow crocheters wanna have a go. Aw thanks I find them relaxing to make sometimes because I love Halloween and its a double bonus that they can re-useable each year which is why I make them <3.

    All of your pumpkins are so good!

    I started to carve a mouth but then I realised how much of a faff it is so I’ve given up for now😂

    The more I look at it the more creeped out I feel😟😂

    Me and my sister are making some pumpkin cake pops. We won’t be on great british bake off anytime soon lol but they are kinda cute

    Omg wow the pumpkin cakes are really good, I couldn't bake to save my life (aw I think you would do fine on British bake off). Also the pumpkin carving is really amazing actually wow. I struggle with stuff like that.

    Omg yes that was my thoughts exactly too. This is why I need to carve pumpkins so then I get to keep my hard earned candy and not give it a way 😂. Only joking haha I may spare a little candy to the fellow trick or treater because I used to go trick or treating myself and I know how much sweets mean to someone trick or treating. Xd
