As soon as I found this tutorial, I knew I would be making glittered pumpkins soon. I love having a few holiday decorations out, but I rarely find anything that I am willing to pay the asking price for. Call me frugal if you want, I don't mind! After seeing how to decorate the craft pumpkins and just how easy it looked, I couldn't wait to get started. I went out the next day to Michael's to purchase supplies. For under 20 bucks I have these...
Are those cute or what? It was so easy, the hardest part was the dripping glue. It took me a few days to finish only because I never sat down more than 30 minutes at a time to work on them. I also made this little white one with black glitter to go with the spider pumpkin that Little Man and I made at Michael's a few weekends ago.
That one is also super easy. You need a black pumpkin, some pipe cleaners, white paint, glue and googly eyes. Poke 4 holes on each side of the stem and insert the pipe cleaners. Bend the pipe cleaners to look like creepy crawly legs, paint a mouth and glue on the eyes. Easy and done! We had fun making it!
Great sparkly pumpkins! Will have to keep this project in mind for next Halloween/Fall. :-)
