Kids' Halloween Mache Pumpkin Workshop

Join us in store to enjoy making with mache for a haunting Halloween decoration you can display at home!



3+ years & Adults     45 mins Class size 1 to 5 guests       £8

Creative kids will love crafting a unique Halloween decoration that is certain to set a spooky scene! This mache pumpkin project is a great way to get the Halloween fun started and it’ll teach them all about making with mache.

The tutorial is designed for kids aged three years and over. They’ll have an expert Hobbycraft colleague showing them every step of the way, with a fantastic variety of craft materials provided in store to help them transform one spooky pumpkin – from googly eyes to tissue paper! There are so many ways to make something unique.

Whether kids have never made with mache before or they just love getting stuck in with this versatile craft, the workshop will be a fun way to embrace Halloween excitement.

All participants will walk away with pumpkins to put on display. Please note, you may need to allow for drying time.

Workshop suitable for ages 3+ years. All kids’ craft workshops require adult supervision. One ticket is required per child.  

Our workshop spaces in some stores are located in open areas, and we will endeavour to minimise interruption from other crafters.

This workshop is also available as a private workshop for group bookings of 4+. 

Keeping everyone safe  

At Hobbycraft, we want our workshops to be enjoyable, inclusive, and safe for everyone. Some workshops are suitable for children, and where this is the case, a parent or legal guardian is responsible for supervising their child at all times unless the workshop is clearly stated as suitable for independent attendance. Our colleagues and instructors are there to guide the activity and support a safe environment, and if any concerns about safety or wellbeing arise during a workshop, these should be raised with a member of staff straight away.

  • 4/5 from Andreana Cowell-Smith, attended Oct 2022: The teacher clearly forgot the start time as they needed prompting to start the session. As such I suspect the lack of preparation seemed worse than it potentially could have.
