Princess pumpkin

After much experimentation, I decided I didn't have time to develop a whole Cinderella's coach!  So I am going with a white pumpkin, wholly made of paper, with a little crown on top and decorated in a feminine way.  After spending a lot of time paper mache-ing I am now at the stage of draping and gluing fine tissue paper over the form.


To make the crown, I used a cupcake wrapper as a template to give me the right curve and then drew a pattern on white paper.  I rolled out some white Sculpey, placed the template on top and cut out the crown.


Next I baked the clay until it was hard.



Tomorrow I will continue draping the pumpkin..
