First fold it up like an ordinary simple Halloween pumpkin lantern, and draw or glue on the eyes, nose and ears (it is recommended to cut it out with black paper and then glue it on, the effect is good ). [For an illustrated tutorial on origami for ordinary Halloween pumpkin lanterns, please see the last one at the bottom of this page pictures]

After completing the appearance of an ordinary flat jack-o-lantern, you can follow my method to make it three-dimensional and stylish~!

This kind of jack-o'-lantern can stand firmly. Look at the picture below:

Fold the top part the same way as before, just fold it back. Now we will fold it in, leaving a small tip that will not fold to the bottom, so that it can be clamped with a small clip. That little pointed end, and then put a rope through it, it can be used as alantern Carry it.

Fold both sides backwards according to the original folding method. Now according to the original crease, fold it inwards. When it is three-dimensional, it will look like two empty ears. .

Fold the bottom, fold the two edges into small strips about half a centimeter wide, fold them inward, and glue them together. The bottom is left empty and stuffed inside. . . . Haha, it’s a fresh-keeping bag.

Why stuff the plastic bag? . .

Reason 1: It can make the pumpkin three-dimensional
Reason 2: The fresh-keeping bag is very light and soft and will not damage the pumpkin lantern made of hand-kneaded paper
Reason Three: The most important thing is that the fresh-keeping bag is basically transparent. . . I used the small lamp beads I got from the discarded small lanterns I bought during the Chinese New Year, and put together a dry battery to make a simple small light-emitting tube. . . When waiting for Halloween activities, I will put this small lamp tube into a plastic bag from the bottom, so that the pumpkin lantern can emit a soft light~

The DIY process makes people feel happy. hehe.

I also made a small version (half the size of a palm, can be used as a pendant...), and named it "Troubled Mr. Pumpkin"
