DIY Halloween Pumpkin Made with Plaster Cloth
This DIY Halloween Pumpkin is another one of my experiments. This time, I'm trying to find a way to make lightweight weatherproof sculptures that can stay outside for long periods of time. In fact, much longer than just the Halloween season. In the next three weeks we'll see if this combination of products has any promise for permanent yard sculptures.
One thing I know already - it was easy and fun. We'll keep our fingers crossed when it starts to rain or snow in the next few weeks.
I was inspired by the Hollywood Haunters video about hard-coating a foam pumpkin with Flex Bond: https://youtu.be/w3r67JXmCY0
To see how Jay, from Unhinged Productions, makes hollow pumpkins with paper mache clay: https://youtu.be/vyD8xCL--xU
And to see his video about the effects of weather on "waterproofed" paper mache: https://youtu.be/lpMcmtCVd8I
Because it was an experiment, I didn't spend a lot of time designing this pumpkin's face, but he's goofy and happy - and I think the neighbor's kids will like him.
If you make this pumpkin (or any other experiment in weatherproof outdoor sculpture) please let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
