DIY: Puffy Paint Pumpkins

Supplies:

• plastic or foam pumpkin (I found mine at the dollar store)
• spray paint (any light color you choose)
• black puffy paint (I used Tulip brand)
• newspaper (or any cover to protect your surface)

Instructions:

Step 1: Set up your foam pumkin on newspaper. Prime and paint the foam pumpkin and allow it to dry.


Step 2: Once the pumpkin is dry, gran your black puffy paint! For the Spider Web Effect, start by painting the natural indentations of the pumpkin.


Step 3: Follow by connecting the lines horizontally, making sure to keep it random and uneven.

 
Step 4: To make a Spooky Tree, I just freehanded the image—feel free to draw on the pumpkin with a pencil first as a guide.


Step 5: Add a few bats to spook up the place!


Step 6: Don't forget to paint in the stem of the pumpkin, too.


Step 7: Allow to dry for at least 4 hours for the puff paint to set completely. Enjoy your Halloween!
