Firstly, I hope you all enjoy this video! It's rather long but you can always skip to the part you need to see! As a photo enthusiast and a professional interior and product photographer I always need props and what better way to get the best props than making it yourself. 
Secondly here are a few things you need to make Jack-O'-Lanterns with air drying clay
Air Drying Clay 1 package. I used Monte Marte and its the best. Available on Amazon.
Cling wrap
A plastic ball or crumpled aluminium foil
A sharp exacto knife
A flat, clean surface (I use a marble slab) to work on
Lots of patience. 
The rest is in the video. 

After 3 days, you can also colour it with a colour of your choice or keep as is, as I have!

Update: use crumpled aluminium foil as opposed to plastic ball. Dries faster. No cracks.

Here's the step by step tutorial of DIY mini pumpkins and I assure you you'll love it!
