Print This Craft

The kids will love making this Craft Stick Pumpkin Frame and attaching their favorite Fall or Halloween picture. Just add a magnet to it and it can be placed front and center on the refrigerator for all to see. If you are feeling really ambitious you could use this as a Fall birthday party craft and take pictures of the kids for them to paste on their craft stick pumpkin frames to take home.

Trivia:

When the fall season arrives, orange pumpkins tend to be on store shelves and growing in patches everywhere. Although orange is the most popular, there are several other pumpkin colors to discover. Some of the colored pumpkins that you see are artificial, but that doesn’t take away from the meaning that they have during the season. Source: Color Meanings – 11 Pumpkin Colors and Their Meanings
