Self Made Pumpkin Badges for Children

Hello everyone, today I'm going to be making cardboard pumpkin badges that are so easy to make so that your kids can make them easily and play with them. And the best thing is that they can make them themselves because they are so easy, and they will love a badge they make themselves.

Cardboard

safety pins

pencil

scissors

tape

markers

First step is to take a cardboard piece. Make sure it is bigger than your badge.

Make a somewhat pumpkin like shape. However, you can make it. Don't worry if it doesn't look good right now.

Now what I need you to do is to thicken all the lines you made before and while doing so make sure that you make all the curves as curvy as you can. Pumpkins don't have straight lines, they have curves.

Now make a stem for the pumpkin. again, it doesn't matter if it doesn't look good right now.

You know how a pumpkin look, so make those lines.

Once you're done, make sure to thicken those lines as well.

Now make a rough outline of the eyes.

Make a rough outline for the mouth. This is just going to be a thick curved line, making a smile.

Don't make the pupils right now, only the outline of the eyes.

If You want to add more details, then you can add them in this step.

Now to make the pupils for the eyes.

Make two circles in the eyes. One big and one small.

The big circle should be below the smaller circle, and the smaller circle should be touching one side of the eye.

Now fill the inside of the eyes, leaving out the pupils.

Now what you need to do is to finalize everything and make all outlines with a marker.

You may need to use a thin tip marker for the eyes and a thick tip for the rest of the drawing.

Now erase the pencil, so only the marker is visible.

This is time to colour our drawing!

You can use any colours you want. But I recommend not to use Sketch colours on cardboard. Unless you're using a white cardboard.

But a good thing about cardboard is that you can also use pencil colours on cardboard and that is exactly what I used. You can also use crayons.

Now grab your scissors and cut out your pumpkin from that cardboard.

Now take one safety pin and tape.

Now, using the tape, stick the safety pin to the back of the pumpkin badge.

And it's ready!!!
