This fun Minnie Mouse pumpkin painting craft is easy for kids and makes a great Disney Halloween party activity. Creative pumpkin without carving.

Two of my most favorite things are Halloween and Disney! We’re excited to visit Disney World this week, so I thought it would be fun to share my Minnie Mouse Halloween Pumpkin. This is one of my most favorite Halloween crafts ever and perfect to show during my 8th Year of Blogging Celebration!

This DIY Minnie Mouse Pumpkin was one of my first crafts that went viral around the internet. Blogging had just started, and it was such an exciting time! Imagine if you will a time before Pinterest, Instagram, Snapchat and Facebook. Things went viral because people tweeted or emailed each other the link! Having something special that I made for my daughter get recognized in this way was such a thrill and helped give me the confidence to purse blogging as a career. I’m so happy to bring back the Minnie Mouse Pumpkin in a step-by-step tutorial for you. Enjoy!
