Styrofoam Halloween Crafts

Pumpkin Patch Teddy

Jolly Golly Pumpkin Doll

Styrofoam shapes are readily available from your craft store, and sometimes from the discount and dollar stores as well. Stock up on a few packages of different shapes, and get creative for Halloween with these great ideas from Dow, makers of STYROFOAM* Brand Foam.

First up is the cutest little teddy bear to come from the pumpkin patch. To make Pumpkin Patch Teddy, you’ll need several styrofoam balls and an egg shape, plus felt and other embellishments to dress him up.

Keep teddy company with this Jolly Golly Pumpkin Doll, made using two styrofoam balls as the doll body. You’ll also need to use some basic sewing skills, but he’s so cute, he’s well worth the effort!
