Step 1
Our diorama craft pumpkins are perfect for displaying your spooky skulls in a truly terrifying way! (They’re also great for holding glitter spiders, rubber mice, bouncy eyeballs and more!) DIY your own version of this Halloween décor piece—it’s as easy as 1-2-3!   Step 1 First, place all your skulls into the pumpkin’s opening. TIP: If you’d like your skulls to sit forward (so they’re close to the pumpkin’s opening), then stuff some bubble wrap or crumpled paper into the back of the pumpkin before you add your skulls. Step 2 Turn and arrange the individual skulls until you’re happy with how they look. Step 3 Cut a piece of cheesecloth, then open it up so you have a single thin layer. Stretch and pull the cloth so it looks a little distressed. When you’re satisfied, drape the cloth over the stem and down one side of the pumpkin.
