Create these cute mix and match Emoji Pumpkins just in time for Halloween fun! You can switch hats on the pumpkin faces to get unique looks!
Step 1: Painting the pumpkins
Squeeze two large dollops of white paint onto a paint palette. Mix in small scoops of baking soda, a little at a time, until you get a thick, smooth icing consistency. TIP: Mixing baking soda into acrylic paint thickens the consistency and gives a heavier, chalky finish.
Paint the pumpkin. Let dry. Add additional coats if needed.
Step 2: Preparing the hat pieces
Print and cut out the hat template.
Trace hat template onto purple felt. TIP: trace your template pieces close to the edges of the felt. This will help save room for additional hat pieces.
Cut out the hat piece.
Step 3: Preparing the hat brim
Use a bowl to trace a 6” (approximate) circle onto the remaining purple felt.
Cut out the circle.
Step 4: Assemble the top portion of the hat
Fold in one third of the first hat piece.
Run a line of hot glue down the folded edge.
Fold over the other third and press into the seam of hot glue to make a cone shape.
Step 5: Assembling the hat
Set the cone shape in the center of the circle and trace around the cone.
Remove the cone and fold the circle in half and snip a slit.
Open the circle and begin cutting the circle into 8 wedges. TIP: Do not cut past the circle you have traced.
Using hot glue, attach the wedges to the inside of the cone-shaped hat.

Trace four stars onto yellow felt.
Cut out the stars.
