Pipe Cleaner Pumpkins and Cats

 There's something so charming about vintage Halloween graphics. With a handful of supplies you probably already have, you can make your own nostalgic Halloween characters.

Supplies: orange, black and silver pipe cleaners, googly eyes, E6000 glue (or another multipurpose craft glue), small scissors, white cardstock, printer and ruler.

 You can find all the graphics you need for free at The Graphics Fairy.
