Pumpkin Decorating Contest - Elephant: Ok, so I used fake produce, but it will last forever! Pumpkin body on it's side (makes instant tail), squash for trunk, and tiny pumpkins for feet (white nail polish for toenails). Spray all parts before assembly (I used a grainy "concrete" texture spray paint). I made the ears out of a grey play-doh/foam that dried and painted them with pink. Tusks out of foam board, then googley eyes. I hot-glued everything together after it dried.
