Low Budget Prop-making: Giant Pumpkins.

I use latex when I have to, foam when it's called for, but love paper Mache as a medium because:

1. It's pretty safe to use
2. Aside from the paint it's pretty safe for the environment.  It recycles materials that later will also break down.
3. It's inexpensive compared to other methods.
4. A bit of extra time decides whether it's tougher/more durable or not.  Not a lot of extra expense in making a tougher piece of paper Mache.
5. You can shape it into nearly anything.
