Halloween Paper Masks (DIY) - Part 2

I hope you might have finished making the witch face mask by now. So let's try to make another popular face mask - the pumpkin!

This one's my daughter's favourite as well :)

I have taken an orange craft paper and a green one. Again if you don't have papers in these colours, don't worry, simply paint a plain paper.

Make some leaves and a tendril from the green paper. Draw a pumpkin shape on the orange paper and cut. Make triangular nose and eyes and draw some teeths for that menacing look.

Highlight it with black water colour pen/paint. I have used a black brush pen. Also don't forget to cut out the holes for the eyes following the same method of calculation - 5cm-6cm gap between the two holes.

To make the tendril we need a small green paper strip about 1.5 inch in length and 1" width. And a circular piece. Draw a spiral on the circular piece and cut. Roll the small rectangular strip to form a pipe. Now paste this spiral on it and the tendril is ready to be used!

Glue all the pieces together and attach an elastic string on the sides. The mask is now ready to be played with. I have used the paper straw here.

Here are a couple of more DIY paper mask ideas so don't hesitate to try.

This one is for those who love bright colours.

If you don't want to paint then just feel free to print these images on an A4 size sheet and make your own mask.
