- Pool noodle pumpkins are a neat new way to add some weather proof faux gourds into your Halloween display or haunt. Now that I have made one, I know Im going to make a ton more for our haunt. Easy and inexpensive to boot! Also it looks like Dollar tree will have pool noodles year round! Im using white ones from their red white and green assortment for Christmas!
Here is the knife I used

Would they still float ? I could see a pool or pond with a bunch floating around in fog water lol.
they sure will.
Purpleshoes Purp that would be rad!
@@amyjarvis4169 I know hu. Now I just need to make them. Maybe for next year.lol.
Or in an actual pool, if you live in a warmer climate where you can have a useable pool in October. That would be a fun Halloween party 🎃
That would be such a cool effect!!!
And this is exactly why I follow you here. You are so creative, and you make it simple for us to try along with you. Thank you for sharing all of your knowledge and ideas
Thank you so much!
I ABSOLUTELY love watching you create! I tried your pumpkins about 7 years ago..whew, that was a lot of work but people loved them.
Your mind is so creative,& practical when it comes to makin what your thinkin , into "a thing" ! love it .You always bring stuff to a hands -on ,inexpensive ,down -to-earth," this aint rocket science guys" approach & show us how, and the results ! Thanks Allen :D
there used to be the air that prop makers were magicians, we are not. Its all simple techniques used in creative ways. Im not special in any way. what works for me will work for you.
Wow! I had no idea pool noodles could be attached to themselves with heat. Loved this project!
it takes a bit of fiddly practice, but it works.
I came here to say the exact same thing, 10 months later😂😂😂
I honestly thought that was a real person in the background at first 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
I’d like to hear anybody else was able to. I just got shorter and shorted melted pool noodles. Every one I added melted the other three off each other.
@@lisagaines4278 Me too 😂
"It's in my head, so I'm going to try it." ...The story of my life! The best way to live. 😄
Right?! Happy Halloween and thanks for tuning in!
amazing! your talent and Imagination blows me away! great job! I love this idea.🤩
Love seeing the creative mind working and analyzing the what and how of this project.
I knew it should work but I wasnt sure of the details lol
That is the most I have ever watched you measure anything. ANYTHING!!! Great project.
geometry is hard!
Hi, I’m from Brazil and I love your ideas. Tks for sharing with us. 👏🏻👏🏻
Glad you like them!
Cool priest and excellent instruction! Instructions are so clear.
Glad it was helpful!
This pumpkin is so cool. Perfect for Halloween. 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃
My kind of artist!!! I only wish I could be ad good as you! 🙏🏻 thank you for sharing.
Love 💕 your creation. I wanted a big pumpkin that didn’t cost an arm and leg so this’ll work perfectly
Do it!
That was absolutely amazing! Wait a minute, “You’re blown away”? I’m freaking out! I’m also blown away by the fact that you had White Pool Noodles! I have seven grandkids and I’ve never seen a W.P.N.! I definitely gotta see more of your work! 🔔👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I have to say I’m definitely also blown away by the use of the heat gun! Lol i had no idea. Lol I AM PUMPED ABOUT MAKING THIS …TODAY! Thanks man for the knowledge and inspiration! So cool! Great job
do it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@StiltbeastStudios Welp I got started the other day and I haven't found my groove yet working with the noodles and heat gun. It's coming along but very patchy holy pumpkin so far 😂. But I'm trying!!!
They have them at dollar tree for Christmas
That pumpkin is fabulous
thank you, they are fun to make!
The best idea I've found to make my own large, cheap pumpkins!!!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
You are so welcome!
I'm happy too. Love this. Thank you for bringing it back
Love that u try new stuff no fear amazing stuff inspires the rest of us
I do at least one experiment a week, some work, some fail lol, but I always learn
Absolutely love your videos. Whatever the project is you can always apply the technique to something else. Thanks for these lessons/tutorials.
You are so welcome!
This is so amazing!!! I just made 40 of the spray foam pumpkins now I gotta go make 40 of these. I had the same idea as you with the pool noodles just didn't know how it would turn out, well now I know. All hail the king of Halloween!!! Thanks man!! Josh
Btw I made some with regular balloons and they turned out more life size and not as big.
That is awesome! I really like this style of prop pumpkin, its growing on me. fast and inexpensive.
Where do you store them all?
@@jendubay3782 under my house in the crawl space
@@bethschuler463 ah, wish I had one of those!
Love the music while i watch. Good job!
Thank you!
Using the heat gun for connecting the pool noodles is maybe the smartest, most creative thing I've seen in my life lol. I would have never thought about that!!! And it looks like it sticks WAY better than using hot glue. That blew my mind.
I can’t wait to try this… I like it for front porch decoration.. and a pumpkin headed Halloween head… both ways it the perfect size and look.. well done.
Another cool idea. 👍🏻👏🏻
Very nice! Quite a creative and inexpensive idea.
if you can get them in orange even better!
That is just frickin awesome!!
Thank you! And thanks for tuning in.
Great minds think alike! I have a weird affinity to pool noodles & spray foam & buy both by the case! My pumpkins are a little different-I use 2 big plastic bowls from Dollar Tree, duct taped together & form my pool noodles over the resulting pumpkin shape. (I weighted some down with concrete so they wouldn't blow off the porch) I then added 3 coats of equal parts joint compound, glue & acrylic paint mixed together. Details can be etched on while set up but not dry. I sprayed with clear coat & was amazed to have a finish very similar to the store pumpkins. I used the long foam rollers from Dollar Tree to form a stem & coated it with my 3:1 mixture after gluing on the stem with hot glue. I used different sized bowls & pipe insulation foam to make smaller pumpkins. I top the pumpkins with a floral wreath of leaves, blooms, berries, pinecones & such or decoupage wordage or appropriate napkins .The virus has ended my craft shows but I expect these puppies to sell like hotcakes next year!
that sounds awesome! Im douing a dollar store bowl project soon here also lol.
This is totally cool !!! Genius idea ... I made a pool noodle wreath last year and that is when I first learned that spray paint melts pool noodles but you didn't have an issue ... so I will have to choose my spray paint more wisely ! The spray foam is also genius ! Just love everything about this and how you explain your processes thank you ! 🙌🙌🙌🙌
most pool noodles dont dissolve with spray paint. They are urethane foam- thats pretty safe with spray paint. Expanded polystyrene foam and extruded polystyrene foam are botgh dissolved by the propellant in spray paint, mist it on and you will be ok.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS!!!!! I just ordered a knife!!!!!
its a good knife!
I really really like it I think it's awesome looking.
Thank you! They’re a lot of fun!
You inspired me to try this! I’ve been making paper mache pumpkins forever and they’re just so time consuming! These were so much fun! I took shards of the noodle from cutting the individual spears to make the stem. Just have to paint. I also used the heat gun to seal each line all the way, just to keep the water out. Thank you so much for posting this, so much fun!
great job! These are a lot of fun to make and budget friendly- and thank you for tuning in! Happy Halloween!
Not sure how you ended up in my recommended feed, but, I'm sure happy you did. I'm not a cost counter, I'm a DIY person. I LOVE this. Thank you for sharing. 😁👍🏻
Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed the video and happy it found you!
Al,I loved every moment of your work. Utter joy!.
Now build Audrey 2!!! ( I will....!!!) Bwahahahaha!!!!
Glad TH-cam suggested your channel! You're awesome!!
thanks for watching!
No doubt, a master at work
Thanks man- these are a lot of fun.
You are amazing! I love Wednesday's!🧡🖤🎃
You're the best!
OMG! I love this idea!! Wondering if it would be better to use yellow noodles painted orange. That way you could do a shallow carve to get the effect of just carving the skin off of a real pumpkin to reveal the yellow layer underneath without going all the way through the pumpkin hull. Also if it got dinged up it would look more natural with the yellow underneath than the white.
That really caught me off guard when you threw the pool noodle pumpkin at the camera, I laughed and now I really have to make these pumpkins for this years Halloween! Or... The entirety of October cause... The whole month is my DEAL.
The first scare is free, the next one you pay for… lol! Enjoy and make all the pumpkins!
@@StiltbeastStudios For real! I used to work at Hobb's Grove in California, and you're there usually starting at 7 but sometimes not getting out of work till 3 am "entertaining" I mean scaring people. Now living in Michigan and misses working there badly. Gotta start somewhere by bringing things out there to new places you know?
As a photographer this is amazing to use as a prop 💕🎃
We all know this already but I must say it. You are truly a master of your craft. I always enjoy watching your videos. Hope all is well & I hope y’all are staying safe. God bless. ~Pete~
Thanks Pete!
My kiddos and I must try this 🎃 project...Thank U for this idea
do it!
Ohhhh and those scrap pieces of foam for teeth on your next project!!!
Nice pumpkins!!
Great idea!!
SOOO CREATIVE!!!
thank you!
they look like cartoon pumpkins brought to reality. very cool
Right! I love it! Thank you! Happy Halloween!
Wow incredible job!
I used those pool noodles for the corners of my daughters bed works great
They're an awesome resource!
Pretty creative there, Mister... I love it!
Thank you very much!
Quite ingenious!
I love everything you do and thank you for taking time to show us what a POOL NUDDALL CAN DO. LOVE, LOVE WATCHING EVERYTHING YOU DO. LOVE YOU.
Thanks! Happy Halloween and go make stuff!
Another great vid. I like that you use inexpensive stuff to make things and even tell us how much it costs to make
Thats the hope- I think I can get these down to $8-$10 per, and thats a price worth making them.
Love this I will use this technique for my scarecrow pumpkin watching over the pumpkin patch... Awesome ty
Perfect!
Oh my goodness these look amazing!!! Thank you for sharing this with us 🎃
so much work, but sooo worth it.
Love this! You're awesome!
Came out so good look great
And they're fun to make- thanks for tuning in!
"Hello shop, I need all of your pool noodles, yes, ALL of them."
On a more serious note, everytime you put out a new pool noodle tutorial the morethey seem like a gift to crafters! Next time they're on sale somewhere I will have to stock up : )
looks like dollar tree will be carrying them year round!
@@StiltbeastStudios Can't justify a USA trip for pool noodles.... but i'll check similar shops more locally :p
@@StiltbeastStudios I was really shocked to see them as something for fall this year at dollar tree . So happy. Last year there wasnt a pool noodle anywhere.
If you have a dollar general it's the only place I've been able to find them right now. I've made candles with mine, you can get 6 candles out of one. Good luck.
@@StiltbeastStudios haha, thats what i just told a lady above me hear.
I made 6 Halloween candles from 1.
Mora makes some of the best knives in the world! AND they're inexpensive. They're a staple of the bushcraft / camping / survival / crafting world. I have at least 6.
I have a few of there chisel knives with the sheaths- they are great.
I like watching your pumpkin making videos!
Glad you like them!
Yesterday I made the commitment to simplify and declutter my life since DIYs are taking over my space. Then I watched this video. Eh, that will be the goal for 2025.
Make all the things! Actually adapt this idea, Dont start a project until you finish one. THAT INCLUDES BUYING THE STUFF TO MAKE THE NEXT ONE lol.
This is such a cool idea. I think all crafters or water enthusiast has some pool noodles laying around. Thanks for sharing and I can’t wait to try this one out.
Thanks so much 😊
Wow you are so creative love watching your videos
Thanks so much 😊
I’m late to the party but I love this! You have given me some great ideas on how to use these, the creative juices are flowing! I needed a cheap way to make a very large scary pumpkin fave for my scarecrow and I think I’ll give this a try and see if I can carve a face in it as well so it will light up from behind!
Also leaving the hole in the middle at the bottom exposed you can use it to slide over a metal rod to hold in place maybe with a zip tie! Ooooh so many ideas thank you so much! Got a follower for life
I absolutely love your channel! Thank you so much for everything! I'm so excited to make pumpkins! 🎃
thank you! Go make stuff!
Stunning

@@StiltbeastStudios did you ever think that something that you posted last year would still be viewed? I HAVE to subscribe to your channel now. I have to granddaughters that are very creative and internet savvy so I am sure that they could do some of your projects (with help of course on the cutting parts)
Brilliant! Finally something I haven’t seen over and over again.
I try to do a lot of that, hope you enjoy!
This is amazing 👍❤️ great job on this. Love, love it 👍👍💯☺️

Love seeing the thought process. Wish I could get my students to be this thoughtful about something! lol!
I love what I do!
Hey Allen, So glad to see you. Great TH-cam Wednesday. Again I never would have thought to use pool noddles to make a pumpkin. That’s why you are the master and I’m the student. Hope to see ya soon....
I will be live tonight! see you then!
Wow..sorry I’m late to your party! For real, I’ve been missing all the good shit! Lol.. ok, bingo watching now and good grief! You are one talented man!! Makes me think I can actually do this one!
you can do it!
BRILLIANT!!
Genius……. Don’t need or want a pumpkin but gotta try this. Our annual Halloween bashes have been stopped due to COVID 2020.
Hopefully next year. You sir are an inspiration. I’m sure noodles are half price now that summer is over. Houston giving you love.
Thanks! Pool noodles seems to become scarce after Labor Day weekend so I would not hesitate if you're looking for them. Good luck with your future bashes!
Looks great!!
I made one, just to try it out! It totally worked!!
awesome!
Love love love, thank you for sharing!!! Love all of your videos, have learned a lot from you.
I see Pumpkin Head yes I'm that old lol
one of my favorite monsters!
I saw that too.
Watched Pumpkinhead on scfy channel just yesterday. Great movie.
My first real spine chilling scare as a kid ! I love Pumpkin Head followed by Silver Bullet
Wow, how your mind saw a pumpkin from pool noodles..... Amazing! 👍👍👍👍👍

This is amazing!!!! U did awesome!!!
Thanks! They’re fun to make!

Thank you! Cheers!
I absolutely love your pumpkin 🎃your very talented tks for sharing I'm subscribing.
Thanks! And thanks for tuning in!
Fantastic idea! I'm working on making a huge pumpkin with full size pool tubes now. I got lucky and found all orange pool tubes.🎃
Score! They are sometimes harder to find after Labor Day, glad you found some!
I saw a huge pumpkin at hobby lobby for $149!!! I was like, "you're out of your ever loving mind". Thanks for sharing ❤️
Seriously- choices! Pay or make your own and have an awesome time creating! Art is good for you!
This is a bloody brilliant idea! It looks awesome ❤️👍
Great idea! One could also shoot some Great Stuff into the hollow space to better consolidate it on the inside!
Absolutely, make sure to watch the cost on this guy though, all materials will creep it up
