Pumpkin Craft

There are so many ways to have fun with pumpkins, you can make an easy craft, edible treat or create home decor.  I love all things pumpkin, the smell of it in my kitchen is my favorite. Maybe I should rephrase that to, the taste of it in my mouth is my favorite.   This is my very own crafted pumpkin patch that I started back in September. I know a bit early for some but I told you I love all things pumpkin.

1. You will need round chocolate or other kind of candy.  I taped the ends to the bottom. 2. Cut out Orange tissue paper squares and place the candy in the center. 3. Wrap it up and twist the end. Place tape over the twisted end to keep it from unraveling. 4. Add brown or green tissue paper to the tip and glue or tape.
