DIY: Glitter Pumpkins

Glittered pumpkins are a great way to decorate your home, or a wedding or event!

Here is what you'll need:
Pumpkins (we used different sizes and colors like orange, white, and green).
Glitter (we used silver, orange, and iridescent).
Silver Paint
Glue (we used Mod Podge)
Paint Brush
Newspaper

Step 1:
Clean pumpkin with a damp cloth, and dry. Spread out newspaper over the work space. Then paint the mod podge on to the pumpkin with a paintbrush.


Step 2:
Sprinkle glitter over the mod podge in desired thickness. It is easier to do this in sections. You can place a piece of paper underneath the pumpkin to catch the glitter that falls off, that way you can dump it back into the jar and it doesn't go to waste.


Step 4:
After the pumpkin has dried, spray over it with a clear spray paint to seal in glitter.
It's that easy!

Tip* For the silver pumpkins, it is easiest to take a white pumpkin, and paint it silver. Then sprinkle the silver glitter over the wet paint, and once it has dried seal it with clear spray paint.





Glittered pumpkins can also be embellished with letters, like the pumpkin my sister Alyssa did with the "A" on it, or words like "boo" (pictured at the top).
