Painted Pumpkins

 

  Definitely not your

Grandmother's pumpkins!

 

Decorating pumpkins is a beloved tradition in our home.
The typical jack-o-lantern is our usual style.

But this year,
my daughter thought it would be fun to

do something a bit different.

How about
painting our pumpkins?

 

After some research on Pinterest,
and a bit of inspiration from blogs
(check them out here, here and here),

we were ready get creative.

 

  

 Using painters tape as a guide,

we traced our lines in pencil.

Next, spray and acrylic paint

created the designs.

We then sealed the acrylic paint
before adding
puff paint accents.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Painted pumpkins.

A whimsical take on an

old tradition.
