Are you as obsessed with decorating pumpkins as we are here at SBLC? What a fun time of year for creative festivity. There are some amazing painted pumpkins circulating out there. I was inspired by some of the plaid painted designs to create my own. Grab some painters tape and join me!
Supplies:
Painters tape, pumpkin, acrylic paint in colors of your choice
Instructions:
Tape off stripes and paint! I just randomly placed my stripes as I went. No plan. You may want to have a plaid pattern in front of you for inspiration, or just wing it. When you switch colors, make sure the paint is dry before applying tape over it. I used my handy heat tool to speed along the drying process. Simple as that!
What do you think. How are you decorating your pumpkins this year?
I love those pumpkins!! so much cuter that scarey faces!
Love the colors. And yes I have been having fun decorating pumpkins too 🙂
Cute idea, and way less mess than carving out pumpkin guts 🙂 Thanks for linking up to Eat, Grow, Sew!
Oh my goodness I SO want to try that! I usually have single colored pumpkins I think this is something I have to try w/my kids! Love it.
