Instructions

  • Paint your pumpkin yellow (it may need two coats)
    Yellow painted pumpkin
  • Starting from the top, paint black stripes around the pumpkin, leaving a space in the front for the face.
  • To make the eyes, I used the paint bottle and a quarter to trace two large white and two medium black circles.
  • Glue them together, then add a tiny white circle to each eye.
    Bumblebee eyes
  • Hot glue the eyes to the front of the bumblebee, then cut a mouth out of the black foam.
  • Attach bumblebee wings to the back of the pumpkin

  • Now it's time so make the base. Pull out the flower foam and silk flowers.

  • Cut the stems to shorten the flowers. If the stem has metal inside, bend the stem back and forth until it breaks. Insert flowers into flower foam

  • Take the pointy end of each BBQ skewer and push it all the way into the bumblebee. Put the other end into the flower foam. Now you have a cute flying bumblebee
