How to make your <%=strCraftName%>:
  • Paint the frame orange and set aside to dry.
  • Cut a stem and leaf out of green craft foam.
  • Cut a pipe cleaner in half.  Twist the pipe cleaner around your finger to make a spiral.
  • Paint light brown lines down the frame to make it look more like a pumpkin. 
  • Use glue to attach the stem, leaf and pipe cleaner vine to the top of the frame.  Use tape to provide extra support (pipe cleaners tend to slip in just glue because they are heavier). 
  • Using black 3-D paint, write the year on the leaf. 
  • Place your favorite fall photo in the frame and display!
