Chenille Pumpkins

They are soo cute!! And a easy craft for kids too.

[IMG]http://www.*********.com/assets/image/2007/W33/8162007121612.jpg[/IMG]

Materials:
3 orange 12" bump chenille stems
Low-temp glue gun
1 each yellow and green plain chenille stems
Two 10 mm movable eyes
3/4" tip of wooden toothpick or skewer painted orange
11/4" circle of Fun Foam or cardboard

Instructions:

Twist the 3 orange stems together firmly at centers (about 3 twists). Spread ends apart, then bend them in toward center, crossed at top. Glue tips to center to form a hollow ball. Shape so sides are evenly covered, and glue strands together at top where they cross.

Bend 11/4" pieces of yellow chenille into circles to hold eyes and border nose. Bend zigzag mouth. Glue in place. Glue on movable eyes and toothpick nose.

Cut 6" green chenille. Twist up 1/2" for stem and coil remainder; glue to pumpkin top. Glue foam circle to bottom for stand.
