Candy Corn Hedgehog Pumpkins

Materials

• 1 fake pumpkin

• Chocolate candy corn

• Pink, gray & burgundy felt

• Painters tape

• Scissors

• Hot glue gun

Directions

1. Block off a circle for the hedgehog's face with painters tape. This will help keep the candy corn in a circle around the face.

2. Cut eyes, cheeks and a nose out of felt, use hot glue gun to attach to pumpkin

3. Add candy. Add a small bead of hot glue to the base of the candy corn; attach candy corn to pumpkin so that the widest part faces the face. Too much hot glue will make the candy corn slide down on the pumpkin.

4. Continue this process around the face; once you've completed the circle, remove the tape.

5. Continue adding candy corn to the entire pumpkin, leaving 1/4 inch between each candy corn. To make sure the candy corn doesn't form straight lines, start building around the circle around the face. Add candy corn in each 'window' and continue all the way around, varying the direction that each candy corn faces. Continue adding candy corn until the entire pumpkin is covered, leaving only the bottom free.
