First attempt at Paper mache pumpkins DIY

On pinterest I found a paper mache pumpkin method and I've decided I'm gunna try it out. 
You take regular shopping bags and fill them crumpled up newspaper (I used magazines) then tie the top. You then take string and wrap it around to create the ridges in the pumpkin  shape. 

Now thats all super easy, no challenge. However the actual paper mache!? OMFG there must be a better way, the plastic from the bags make it hard to layer in place and it slides and moves since the paper inside isnt very solid. 

Needless to say, I'm gunna look for another method soon.  Pictures will follow once I've finished at least one of the pumpkins.
