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.

  • 4/5 from Katy Sullivan, attended Oct 2025: It would’ve been better if some of the colours had already been cut up for children to see the full selection and for more completed pumpkins be displayed for ideas. My son had a good time though and the lady leading it was lovely.

  • 5/5 from Corrina Vail, attended Oct 2023: What a great class this was for my girl (3 yrs) The teacher was pleasant, helpful and good at explaining different techniques to everyone. We enjoyed it, there was no pressure to create in a certain way so my daughter was able to be expressive which made it more fun! It was a small group so not overwhelming nor noisy. We craft alot at home but this was great to get out and do something different and I didn't have to clean up! Great for all skill levels. Will definitely book for another class another time. 10/10.
