PUMPKIN DECORATION

(two heavy paper plates, poster paint, tissue paper, felt, plastic-foam tray)
1. Draw eyes, a nose, and a mouth, making a pumpkin face on one heavy paper plate. Cut them out. Place the paper plate on top of the second plate, trace around the openings, and cut them out.
2.  Paint the outside of each plate orange, and glue a piece of yellow tissue over the facial features on the inside of the plates. Glue the plates together, rim to rim with the painted sides facing out.
3. Make a slot in a green plastic-foam tray. Stand the pumpkin in the tray. Add glue and let dry.
4. Add a felt stem to the top of the pumpkin, and glue leaves around the base.
5. Place the pumpkin where light can shine through it.
