    Quick Project Steps

    Prepare Materials: Gather orange and black SuperDuo beads, beading thread, and needle.
    Bottom Half Construction: Start with eight orange SuperDuos, increasing rows by adding more beads, and incorporating black beads for the face details.
    Top Half Construction: Similar to the bottom half, but with fewer black beads, since it mainly forms the top of the pumpkin.
    Joining Halves: Sew the top and bottom halves together, aligning them carefully to ensure the pumpkin shape is maintained.
    Finishing Touches: Tie off and trim excess thread.
    Consider adding a bail or a pin back for wearing.

    Nice selection. Disappointed that some basic seed beads have been out of stock for a long while and the clasps that I need are no longer in stock.
