How to Make Paper Pumpkins for Fall

Directions

1. Cut each sheet of paper vertically into five strips, each 1.5 inches wide.
2. From those strips, cut one to 7 inches, two to 9 inches, and leave two at 11 inches. You need two sets of these for each pumpkin, so total per pumpkin: two 7", four 9", four 11".
3. Fold each strip like an accordion.
4. Using double-sided tape, attach the two strips of the same length together to form a circle. Do this for each length.
5. You'll have one circle from the 7" strips, two from the 9" strips, and two from the 11" strips.
6. Make a 7" medallion by applying a small dab of hot glue in the center and holding it until set.
7. Stack the medallions by gluing them together: start with the 7" on top, then a 9", an 11", another 11", and finish with the remaining 9" on the bottom.
8. Attach a stick, paper leaves, and twine to the top of the pumpkin with hot glue.
