Puttin’ on the Glitz
Updated: Sep. 07, 2017This might be our easiest pumpkin craft yet!
Too often, the humble pumpkin gets taken for granted. We suggest giving pumpkins unexpected shine with a dusting of fine glitter. On a mantel or your Thanksgiving table, they’ll sparkle in sunlight and glisten magically in candlelight, in any colors you choose.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Pumpkin (real or artificial)
- Medium-size sponge brush
- Tacky glue
- Fine glitter in choice of color
- Paper plate
Directions:
Step 1. Use sponge brush to apply a thin layer of glue to surface of pumpkin.
Step 2. Sprinkle glitter over entire glue area; shake off excess onto paper plate. For large pumpkins, apply glue and glitter in sections.
Step 3. Allow pumpkin surface to dry thoroughly before touching.
