Materials:
1 medium pumpkin with stem attached
white spray paint
painter’s tape
white acrylic paint and paintbrush
craft glue
sequins
First, cover the stem with painter’s tape. Take your pumpkin outside and cover all sides with spray paint. Having a pumpkin with a stem really helps apply the paint on because you can tilt it and turn it around. After it has dried for a couple hours, take off the tape. There will be some orange spots that the spray paint couldn’t get to, so take the acrylic white paint and just cover up the spots with your paintbrush.
Now you can begin bedazzling your pumpkin! Use a craft glue or all-purpose glue like Elmer’s and draw a line half-way down a crater of the pumpkin. Apply the sequins along the line. Do this for every 2 or 3 craters going down. Attach the vertical lines together with upside-down U lines of glue. Apply the sequins. Make 2-3 horizontal rows. When you have completed all your rows, proudly display your classy pumpkin for trick-or-treaters to admire.
Are you wondering why I didn’t put a spider on the glitzy pumpkin web? Well, cause I’m terrified of spiders (even fake ones)!
Try the same technique with black spray paint or different colored sequins. Enjoy!
