Plastic Trick or Treat Pumpkin Mummy

Easy Plastic Trick or Treat Pumpkin Mummy Tutorial

This Plastic Trick or Treat Pumpkin Mummy is a fun one and very easy and inexpensive to make.

Plastic Trick or Treat Pumpkin Mummy

This project was so fun to make and didn’t cost me a dime! I wanted to upcycle one of the .99 plastic pumpkins I got last year for Halloween and decided on upcycling it into a trick or treat pumpkin mummy.

Time: 20-30 Minutes

Level: Easy

Materials:

  • Plastic Trick or Treat Pumpkin
  • Old Sheet/pillowcase/canvas bag
  • Scrap felt
  • Pen
  • Chalk
  • Scissors
  • Hot glue sticks and glue gun

Instructions:

This is the pumpkin BEFORE. This are great because you can find them everywhere for about one dollar.

To make the eyes I used a white and black piece of scrap felt.  I traced two round objects with a pen and chalk and cut them out.

Glue the eyes together and set them aside.

I cut strips of a canvas money bag. My Mother-in-Law works at a bank and they were throwing them away, so she grabbed them for me to recycle and reuse.  One time, I turned one in to a travel laundry bag.

DIY Pumpkin Mummy

Start gluing the strips around your pumpkin.  I ended up cutting different lengths.

Once you cover the pumpkin, glue on the felt eyes. Glue a final piece of cloth strip over the top of the eye.

There you have it…an upcycled version of a boring plastic pumpkin. You can use it for trick or treating, or use it as a bowl to serve chips or the like at your next Halloween party.
