If I can't make it to the dollar store or they don't have them. I'm going to try Mr. Potato Head parts. I have a ton around my house since I like to collect them. I figured it'd save instead of buying the ones specially made for pumpkins. That is a good idea. If I can’t make it to the dollar store or they don’t have them.

We had a lot of fun with it. The bear/doll costumes are in the toy section at both the of Dollar Tree Stores near us here in San Jose. Here are some more tips: -Small to medium sized pumpkins work best for this project. -Rinse off and dry pumpkins before decorating. -Use a fix-all type of heavy duty craft glue to attach costumes. I have tried hot glue in the past- but sadly enough, it doesn't stick to pumpkins! (You could use staples or floral wire, but the pumpkins will begin rotting once you puncture the skin- so they won't last as long) -Use permanent markers -The hair is sold separately, they are actually scrunchies that we found in the christmas section. (2 for $1) -Be sure to have your scissors and/or seam ripper on hand, as you will want to modify some of the clothing to fit your pumpkin and make gluing easier. Thanks for posting my pumpkins!
