Halloween Crafting Sessions - October 19th

Pumpkin Fairy House

Get Creative This Halloween with Rainbow Jane 🎃

Halloween is the perfect time to let your imagination run wild — and during the Rainbow Jane Halloween Crafting Sessions, you’ll have the chance to explore all the beautiful shades of autumn.

We’ll be making pompom spiders, acorn and leaf-printed paintings, and of course, creating your own special carved pumpkin.

If you’d like to make a magical pumpkin, it helps if you’ve already cut off the top and scooped out most of the inside before coming along. That way, you can spend your time at Rainbow Jane adding all the fun, creative touches instead of tackling the messy prep work.

However, if you’d prefer a bit of help with this step — no problem at all! Just bring your pumpkin as it is, and we’ll do it together.

For my example pumpkin, I placed it on a tray to create a little garden scene. If you’d like to make something similar, bring along a tray or large plate to use as a base.

My pumpkin “house” features a large pumpkin from Aldi, while the smaller top section was one I grew in my garden. Many shops now have a range of pumpkins — from the classic carving ones to smaller, more ornamental varieties — so you can choose whatever inspires you most!

We’ll also have plenty of autumn treasures to work with, including leaves, acorns, and twigs. And since the Rainbow Jane garden backs onto Meanwood Woods, you’re welcome to gather a few extra natural bits to add your own woodland magic.

I’ll provide all other materials, including lights, for our autumn and Halloween crafts — you just need to bring your pumpkin (and maybe a base if you’d like a garden scene).

Let’s celebrate the season with creativity, colour, and a little touch of Halloween magic! 🍂✨
