Easy Paper Plate Pumpkin Mask

Spooktastic September continues today with this cute paper plate pumpkin mask! If you have little ones, they're going to love this idea. Take it away, Lisa!

Looking for a quick Halloween craft? I'm Lisa visiting from Pebbles and Piggytails where it's all about making life meaningful. I love making crafts for kids that are simple and use stuff you most likely already have at home. Today, I'm sharing a super easy Paper Plate Pumpkin Mask for you and your little one to make together this Halloween.

Paper Plate Pumpkin Mask

Materials Needed

• 1 orange paper plate
• 1 sheet of adhesive craft vinyl (this is a great time to use vinyl scraps!)
• 1 straw or stick
• 1 popsicle stick
• milk jug lid, or other shapes for eyes
• scissors or razor
• marker or pencil
• tape

Instructions:

1. Trace the eyes using the milk jug lid or other shaped item. Place them about 1 inch apart.

2. Carefully cut out the eyes using scissors or a razor (adults only for this part). I used a razor.

3. On the back of the adhesive craft vinyl, have your child draw a nose and a mouth for the jack o' lantern mask.

4. Cut out mouth and nose shape with scissors.

5. Pull adhesive backing off and let child place it on the paper plate. Let them arrange it any way they want. The fun part of this is the imperfection and creativity of the mask. The great thing about the vinyl is that it can be easily removed and replaced multiple times.

6. Turn the plate over,  and if desired tape half of the popsicle stick for a stem (you can color it with green marker first) at the top of the mask. Tape a the straw on the bottom half of the mask to make easy holding for little hands. Add any embellishments, like ribbon if you want.

And your jack o' lantern craft mask is done!
