Prepare an orange square colored paper, pinch the diagonal crease, fold it into a triangle, align the two sides of the left and right surface layers with the center line, fold it over, fold the surrounding corners inward, continue to fold the upper corners outward, fold the left and right corners inward, turn it over, and then cut the horns from the black paper.

The nose and mouth are glued together and the simple jack-o-lantern is folded.

Prepare an orange square colored paper and fold it in half along two diagonal lines and the middle line. Pinch the diagonal crease and fold it into a triangle. Fold the left and right sides of the triangle surface in line with the center line. Turn over, the extra two corners at the bottom are folded up, the left and right sharp corners are folded in the middle, and the upper corner is folded down.

Continue to fold the upper corner of the surface layer outward, and fold the left and right sharp corners inward a little and turn over. Take another piece of black colored paper and draw a mark of pumpkin mouth on it. Cut two triangles with scissors as eyes and a small triangle as nose, then cut off the mouth along the trace, and stick them one by one, and the simple pumpkin lantern will be folded.

The origin of pumpkin lantern:

The jack-o-lantern is a symbol to celebrate Halloween. Legend has it that a man named Jack was so stingy that he couldn't go to heaven after death, and because he made fun of the devil, he couldn't go to hell, so he had to wander around with lanterns until the day of judgment.

In order to scare away these wandering souls on Halloween, people carve terrible faces with turnips, beets or potatoes to represent Jack holding lanterns, which is the origin of pumpkin lanterns.
