Beetlejuice pumpkin

 Happy Halloween 👻


I made Beetlejuice as a carved pumpkin for Halloween. He has a sandworm on top of his head.

I carved out his mouth and made some rotten teeth using air dry clay.

For his eyes, I used styrofoam balls that I cut in half and then painted. 

His hair is neon green yarn that I hot glued on to his head. I painted him white and sponged on some green paint for mold. 


For the sandworm, I used brown packing paper and wrapped that in duct tape for the black and white stripes. 



The head is cardboard and paper mache. His lips, eyes, teeth and tongue are made from air dry clay that I painted. 





Thanks for having a look. x

Gary the Snail Pumpkin

Happy Halloween 👻

Here is a pumpkin I made of Gary the snail from the cartoon Spongebob Squarepants. 


I made the base from cardboard and his body is a plastic bag stuffed w paper. I went on top of that with paper mache and hot glued around the edge for his slime.


His eye stalks are dowels that I hot glued to the base. 

His eyes are styrofoam balls that I painted yellow-green with black pupils. I hot glued them on top of the dowel stalks. I painted his body and stalks blue and the slime neon green.



The pumpkin is his shell which I painted pink with a red swirl and purple dots. I cut off the stem and turned the pumpkin upside down.


I painted a container green for his food bowl and wrote Gary on it with black paint.






Thank you for stopping by and having a look.
