Create an Aluminum Can Pumpkin Craft this fall season to display in your classroom or home!
Wait!
Don’t throw out your aluminum cans from dinner tonight!
Instead, wash them well, set aside to dry, and then create these adorable aluminum can pumpkins with them!
This is a great way to get the kids involved with decorating the house this year.
Create a variety of different sizes and make a pretend pumpkin patch with your pumpkins if desired!
Aluminum Can Pumpkin Craft
Supplies:
- 1 empty and clean aluminum can
- orange craft paint
- paint brush
- wooden stem or cork
- two faux leaves
- hot glue gun and hot glue sticks (I recommend this glue gun!)
- paper plate
Directions:
*If you are creating this craft with children, adult supervision is recommended!
Turn the empty aluminum can over and place on a paper plate.
Paint the aluminum can orange. Set aside to dry. You do not need to paint the inside of the can.
Paint another coat on the tin can. Set aside to dry. *Paint more coats as needed.
