Haunted House carved pumpkin

 Happy Halloween 👻

My carved pumpkin for this Halloween is a haunted house.  

I painted the pumpkin using matte black acrylic paint. 

I cut out the windows and added popsicle sticks which I painted brown.

Next I made the chimney by rolling up cardboard and cut up tiny rectangles for the bricks. I painted them and glued them on in a staggered pattern. 

I added bats to a skewer which I painted black and stuck it into the stem of the pumpkin.

I made a spider from pipe cleaners. I added a pompom and painted it all brown.

I made stairs from popsicle sticks and cardboard. I painted them brown and attached the stairs to the pumpkin with skewers.

I added spider web around the chimney and to the stairs.

Thanks for having a look. x
