Silly Slime Puke Emoji Painted Pumpkin

A grinning emoji face with rosy cheeks spews a stream of green slime down the front of this no-carve pumpkin. Everything is done with acrylic craft paint, so kids can help without any knives involved. Sketch the eyes and mouth in pencil first, fill the black shapes with two coats, then layer light and dark green for a drippy slime effect. Add a few floating green dots to sell the splatter.

A little extra help

Our tips for carving a similar design

The whole trick here is layered green paint that reads as a drippy stream of slime pouring from a cheerful emoji mouth. You build the face with flat black shapes and soft pink cheeks, then stack light and dark greens so the slime looks wet and gloopy. Because it is all paint, this is a fully no-carve project that kids can help with start to finish.

From pumpkin to porch

Clean and dry the pumpkin
Pick a pumpkin with a smooth, rounded front so the face has room to sit above the belly. Wipe the skin with a damp cloth to remove dirt and any wax, then dry it completely. Paint grips much better on a clean, dry surface. Set the pumpkin on newspaper or a wipeable mat before you start.
Sketch the face in pencil
Lightly draw the two curved happy eyes, the wide open smile, and two round cheek circles with a pencil. Keep the mouth centered and leave open space just below it for the slime to flow. Step back and check that the features look balanced before any paint goes down. Pencil wipes off easily if you want to adjust.
Paint the black features
Fill the eyes and the open mouth with black acrylic craft paint using a small round brush. Let the first coat dry, then add a second coat so the black looks solid and even. Keep the edges crisp by pulling the brush along the outline first, then filling the center. A steady hand here makes the whole face look clean.
Add the rosy cheeks
Load a soft flat brush with pink and paint the two round cheeks below the eyes. Blend the edges slightly while the paint is wet so they fade softly into the orange skin instead of ending in a hard ring. Two thin coats give a nice glow without looking heavy. Let everything dry before the next step.
Layer the green slime
Start with a light green base for the main drip flowing down from the mouth, keeping the top wide and the bottom rounded like a puddle. Once dry, add darker green along the edges and in the folds to give it depth and a wet, gloopy look. Finish with a few scattered green dots around the drip to sell the splatter. A highlight of pale yellow-green down the center makes it shine.
Seal and photograph
Let the pumpkin cure for a few hours, then brush on a coat of clear acrylic sealer so the colors stay bright and smudge-proof. Display it on a table or porch out of heavy rain. Snap a photo in soft daylight to capture the glossy slime. Share it with the community when you are done.

Gather your supplies

Check things off as you get ready.

Work on a stable surface, keep your free hand out of the cutting path, and have an adult handle sharp tools.

Three levels of light

Leave intact
The orange skin across the face and belly stays untouched as the emoji's cheerful background.
Peel & shade
If you want a soft glow, lightly peel a shallow window behind the open mouth so a hidden LED reads as warm light.
Cut through
For a lit version, cut fully through only the open mouth shape and drop in an LED, saving that big opening for last.

Learn the carving basics

Before you start cutting

Do I need to carve anything at all?

No, this is a fully painted, no-carve design, which is what makes it so kid-friendly. You only need craft paint and brushes. If you later want a glow, you can add a small LED behind an optional mouth cutout, but the painted version stands on its own.

How do I make the slime look wet and drippy?

Work in layers rather than one flat green. Lay down a light green base, add darker green along the edges and folds for shadow, then streak a pale yellow-green highlight down the center. The contrast between the tones is what makes it look glossy and gloopy.

Will the paint hold up outdoors?

Acrylic craft paint is fairly durable once dry, but a coat of clear acrylic sealer helps it resist smudges and light moisture. Keep the pumpkin under a covered porch and out of steady rain. Displayed indoors or in a sheltered spot, it can last for weeks.
