Cute and Easy DIY Pumpkins with Cricut
Mix and match the pumpkin face pieces cut with your Cricut machine to make thousands of combinations. You can pre-cut all the face shapes and let the kids pick their favorites to make a cute pumpkin that is uniquely their own. This Halloween project includes a free SVG file you can use for all kinds of DIY and decor.
Materials
- Free download: Halloween Faces SVG file from Jen Goode (download below)
- Cricut machine (or other electronic cutting machines)
- Black Vinyl
- Pumpkins
- Ribbon or fabric scraps (optional)
Instructions
- Clean your pumpkin with a damp cloth and wipe dry.
- Download the SVG file. Upload it to Cricut Design Space. Ungroup and resize each pumpkin face to whatever size you need.
- Follow the onscreen instructions to cut out the pumpkin faces.
- Apply each face to each pumpkin.
- Finish off your pumpkin with ribbon or fabric strips wrapped and tied around the stem of each pumpkin.
Tip: use outdoor or permanent adhesive vinyl to ensure it sticks to the pumpkin well.
Customizing options for your DIY Pumpkins
You can mix and match all aspects of your DIY pumpkins. For a fancier pumpkin, paint it or draw on it first and then add the vinyl face pieces. The sticker faces are perfect for all ages. Preschoolers and toddlers can have fun decorating a pumpkin without paint or carving tools. Use glitter vinyl for extra bling.
I hope you have fun decorating your pumpkins!
