There's a reason paper pumpkins show up everywhere once autumn hits—they're the easiest way to bring a little seasonal warmth to a shelf or a classroom wall. This one folds up from a single square in about ten simple steps.

The moves are all shown in the photos, so even if you're new to origami you can follow along. Go classic orange, or surprise everyone with a white or gold one. Fold a handful and you've got instant fall decor.
