What type of paper works best?

You can use craft paper, construction paper, or even scrapbooking paper for vibrant colors.

Can I use different shapes instead of pumpkins?

Absolutely! Feel free to change the shapes based on themes, such as stars for a night sky.

Consider adding a piece of cardboard at the bottom as a base to ensure your pumpkin stands upright.

Any white craft glue can work, but it might create a mess if spilled.

While it's not typically done, you could potentially create a hollow version and place a small LED light inside for a glowing effect.

The materials are better suited for indoor décor, as they may not withstand weather elements.

A fun and creative autumn craft project for all ages, perfect for adding a cheerful touch to your seasonal decor.
