🖌️ How to Make This Super Cute Quilled Pumpkin Halloween Craft
So lets begin this fantastic tutorial. I hope you enjoy it and find it super easy to follow.
- Step 1: Take a long piece (about 20 inch) of quilling strip and use the slotted quilling tool to coil the whole strip. Take out the coil from the tool and allow the coil to loosen up.
- Step 2: Take 3 pieces of small (3 inch), green coloured quilling strips. Create 3 shapes with them – one loose coil, one teardrop shape and one lens shape.
- Step 3: Cut out 2 round pieces from white craft paper and use black sharpie to draw the outlines and the eye balls. These will be the eyes of the pumpkin. Cut out the mouth pattern from a pink coloured craft paper.
- Step 4: Take a piece of orange coloured craft paper and use craft glue to trace a pumpkin outline on it. The size of the pumpkin outline should be same as the size of the loose coil prepared in step 1.
- Step 5: Place the loose coil on the glued area of the orange craft paper. Nicely adjust the outer end of the loose coil along the outer end of the glue traced pumpkin shape.
- Step 6: Carefully cut the orange craft paper all around the coils’ outer edge.
- Step 7: Glue the teardrop shape on the top middle part of the coiled pumpkin. Also, glue the loose coil on any one side of the teardrop shape and the lens shaped piece on the other side of it.
- Step 8: And finally glue the eyes and the mouth on the quilled pumpkin on their laces. Allow the glue to dry entirely and your done! Enjoy!
