Hamburger Pumpkin
What you need
- 1 9" fake pumpkin
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of red felt
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of green felt
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of yellow felt
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of white felt
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of purple felt
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of beige felt
- 8.5" x 11" sheet of brown felt
- Hot glue
- Sticky back felt (optional)
Directions
- Cut a 2" long strip of brown felt for the burger patty. If using 8.5" x 11" sheets, you will need two strips. Use sticky back felt and stick directly to the pumpkin, or use hot glue.
- Cut a jagged piece of green felt for lettuce and hot glue it under the burger patty.
- Cut a 1/2" wide white strip for onion and another 1/2" strip of purple felt. Glue them directly to the brown felt.
- Cut two 2" half circles from green felt for pickles and place them over the onion.
- Cut two yellow cheese triangles and place them on top of the onion with hot glue.
- Cut two 11" squiggly red strips for ketchup and layer them on top of everything.
- Top off the pumpkin with tiny beige felt sesame seeds, gluing them very carefully with hot glue.
