Little Vampire Pumpkins

 Who wouldn't want one of these little guys in their Halloween decor? ;) I saw them on pinterest and thought they were hilarious. We had to make some!
Inspiration via.


They were very simple to do. I cut out holes the same size as the little fangs, scooped out the pumpkin guts, and then let the kids decorate them with googly eyes and permanent markers.  They are looking pretty festive on our front porch. We may have to make a few more as these won't last all the way to Halloween, I am sure.
Aaron practically ran to the bus this morning. He was excited to give Miss Jan one of the little vampire pumpkins that he made yesterday. He also brought one for his kindergarten teacher. He said that kids have brought her apples before and someone even brought her a peach. I told him that I don't think anyone has ever brought in a mini pumpkin with fangs....but I could be wrong. Dallin didn't feel the need to bring one. He's a bit too old for that ;)
Pin It!
