After you use your glue, flour, water, and a little salt (to prevent mold) for your strips of paper but still have a little bit left over, you could then add a little bit of spackle to the mixture and make a nice smooth paste that becomes hard as a rock.
Great video. It’s to the point, pleasant and explains everything clearly without tons of chatter. I thank you very much. I think this might be the very best I’ve watched. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
You could also use spackling as your top layer before you paint🥰 smoothing with a paintbrush and a little bit of water to make the spackling smooth once the spackling dries, you can go over any cracks with more spackling and a damp paint brush until you get the perfect affect.🌸
So cute, I love it! I just decided I wanna try paper mache & this is the perfect project to start, especially this time of year! I also love how you do it so that you can reuse the poly fill. Genius!
You deserve more views on this!!! It’s so cute and the money-saving potential to totally decorate your home for fall is outstanding! Thank you so much! I’ll be doing this through the summer to decorate my office and home for fall. 😁
Hello Whiskey and Whit recreated your pumpkin and send us over to your channel, so happy she did , amazing job and tutorialI will definitely recreate it , be blessed ❤️💙💜
I honestly think it would but the stuffing helps give it a more fluffy smoother appearance whereas I think the other bags would be somewhat bulky or it might give a rugged look. Hope this helps! 😊
I’m wondering if you could use plastic grocery bags in place of poly fill? Then you wouldn’t have to worry about removing anything. What is everyone’s thoughts on doing it this way?
You could do that but I’m not sure how much light would come through especially with the paint. If you end up trying it you’ll have to let me know how well it works!
I think it would be better to paint the faces on since the walls are pretty thin. I'm thinking they would probably fall apart if you tried to cut them🤔
@@TheOldCountryPorch Excellent. Great to know. I want to make a few and put them outside. I think I know how to modify them to not blow away and still be safe for weather.

You can also use crumbled newspaper inside the plastic bag to form the pumpkin.

Thank you!! Just thought you could make it thick and form permanent facial features. 🎃

It’s 99 days until Halloween 🎃 and I’m going to start this project now . Much love from Saudi ❤

I was waiting for the measurements of ingredients & when you said you don't use them, I thought oh she's great. Thank you for this!!

Awesome idea. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! I think I can do this!💝🎃💝
Have fun!
Thank you a bunch for this tutorial!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Love this! Thank you for showing your technique!
Would stuffing it with more bags instead of stuffing work?
I honestly think it would but the stuffing helps give it a more fluffy smoother appearance whereas I think the other bags would be somewhat bulky or it might give a rugged look. Hope this helps! 😊
I am going to have to make some of these this year. Thank you for the tutorial! They are super cute!!
Thank you!!So cute!!
You make this look so easy!!! They turned out so so cute!
Thanks! They are pretty easy to make!
@@TheOldCountryPorch I'm going to try my hand at it... We'll see how that goes! Haha! Thank you for the excellent tutorial!

nice work...bravo
Love the video
Could you recycle paper from a shredder?
How long did it take your pumpkin to dry completely before you painted?
HELLO BEAUTIFUL VIDEO HERE BRASIL 🇧🇷😎🙏
seeing that you can use poly fill after i just cut up 10 paper bags 😭
Question? How long do you wait for the first layer to dry off?
Can we use sand or water instead of the foam
Before closing up the bottom can you leave it open and put lights inside??
You could do that but I’m not sure how much light would come through especially with the paint. If you end up trying it you’ll have to let me know how well it works!
Hi! I love these pumpkins. I have a question: could you do a pumpkin mask for halloween with this technique? Maybe this is posible with a bigger bag.
It could work but I would add extra layers to make sure it's strong enough!
Want to do this for halloween! Just curious, what paint did you use or does any paint work on it?
I just used craft paint but any paint will work!
How many layers did you do. Super cute
I did about three layers and let it dry and added another three layers to get a nice strong pumpkin 🎃
Would it be possible to “carve” these into Jack-o-lanterns? Like after they’ve fully dried? Or just best to paint faces on?
I think it would be better to paint the faces on since the walls are pretty thin. I'm thinking they would probably fall apart if you tried to cut them🤔
I feel silly but what Is the powder?
they are so cute!
it's flour🙂
What kind of paint did you use? Nice video.
I used acrylic craft paints🙂
Great job! What a great tutorial too! Just curious, how much does it weigh when completed?
Thank you! They are pretty light, around 6 oz🙂

Does any type of paper work?
Yes, but thinner paper works better and newspaper works best!
