Great Pumpkin Outdoor

1.  I cut a Snoopy silhouette out of black tagboard.

2.  Next I cut a large circle out of white tagboard, grass out of green tagboard and pumpkins out of orange tagboard.  I mounted everyting using a glue stick and glue gun onto a 20″x30″ Black Foam Core board I purchased at Hobby Lobby.

3.  I used another 20″x30″ black foam core board and attached more grass and pumpkins made of tagboard.

Next I sprayed everything with an acrylic sealant (do this outside).

Poke holes in the back of the foam core and push in battery operated twinkle lights ( I used 2 strands of 15 lights.

4.  Using white foam core board I drew the ghosts with a large black permanent marker and cut them out with a craft knife. I attached wooden dowels to the back with a glue gun and batting to Pig Pen’s ghost.

5.  I draped a table with burlap, added fall leaves and some pumpkins on top. I found a Halloween cut out of Linus at Big Lots but you can make your own too. I even added little bit of blue felt for his blanket.

6  I pushed the dowels I glued to the back of the ghosts into hay bales. I added paper sacks and “I got a rock” for the Charlie Brown ghost!
