How to Make a 3D Jack Skellington Pumpkin with Hot Glue
I’ve been sharing a few Nightmare Before Christmas DIY in celebration of the 25th Anniversary and I think this one is my favorite. So let’s get started!
What you will need:
- Faux Pumpkin
- White Spray Paint
- Black Spray Paint
- Glue Gun & Hot Glue
- Scissors
- Teflon Sheet or a large piece of glass
- Image of Jack’s Face
- Adult Santa Hat
Here’s a quick video tutorial I posted on Facebook, but I’ve also included step by step photos below. 🙂 BTW are you following me on Facebook? I share lots of ideas there too!
Step 1
Draw or print Jack’s face to use as a template.
Place a Teflon sheet (or non-stick craft sheet) on top of the image.
Step 2
Using the Hot Glue Gun trace over the image with Hot Glue. When tracing the eyes, trace the outline first and let it dry. Then fill in with glue.
Step 3
Once the glue has dried, remove from the mat and trim edges as needed with scissors.
Step 4
Next, spray paint the Foam Pumpkin white, let dry. Spray paint the facial features black, let dry.
Step 5
Attach the facial features to the Foam Pumpkin with Hot Glue.
Step 6
Add the Adult’s Santa Deluxe Hat.
Now Jack is ready to party!
I hope you give this project a try and be sure to check out the rest of our Nightmare Before Christmas Halloween Party!
Happy Crafting!
