What you'll need:
- 1 medium pumpkin
- 1 black and white Cruella de Vil-style wig
- Craft paint: red, black and blue
- 1 foam craft paintbrush
- Pumpkin carving tool
How to make it:
- First find an image of Cruella de Vil that you think that looks good
- Using the image as a guide, use the pumpkin carving tool to make some of t he most prominent features of Cruella de Vil: her wide smile, high-arched eye brows, and her sneaky eyes. (See photo.)
- Using craft paint, paint around each carved out feature to exaggerate the make-up that she wears. (See photo.)
- Top with the wig, and she is ready for Halloween night! (See photo.)
Tips:
- The wig is what makes this pumpkin stand out. Even if the carving of the face isn't perfect, it will still look like her with the white and black wig.
