Need a last-minute idea for decorating miniature pumpkins? The above craft is really easy and requires only a few easy steps!
- Get three tiny pumpkins, preferably in slightly different sizes. I suggest hitting your local pumpkin patch and grabbing the cheap ones. We got these for $.50 cents.
- Stack them on top of each other. Make sure you break the stem off the bottom and middle pumpkin. If they won’t stay stacked, try adding a toothpick as a sort of screw. Mine stayed stacked just fine without, though.
- Spray paint them white. Of course, you could pain them any color you want, really, but we went with white because they look like ghosts.
- Write “B” on the top one, “O” in the middle, and “O” on the bottom. (Or have a super meticulous and awesome boyfriend write it for you, since his artistic skills are way better!) Sal used a plain old Sharpie to accomplish this part.
- Embellish the letters a bit to make them even more spooky.
That’s it! All done, and you have a really cute decoration that you can put on your mantle or anywhere else. Crafting doesn’t get much easier than that! Thank you again to Sal, my wonderful boyfriend, who ran with Jacob’s idea of creating a pumpkin ghost! You all know I’m not the craftiest person on the planet, and my letters wouldn’t have looked quite as pretty. In fact, if you stink at lettering, just save yourself the hassle and go buy some stick on ones! Or use a stencil.
Do you have any really cute and easy Halloween decoration ideas to share? Remember, the key word is EASY! If a toddler could do it, there’s a strong chance that I could accomplish it. Then again, there’s also a strong chance that the toddler’s version would look better!
Exactly where did you end up getting the techniques to post ““Super Easy
Pumpkin Craft for Last Minute Halloween Decorations – Pretty
Opinionated”? Thanks -Ben
You actually make it seem really easy with your presentation
however I find this topic to be actually something that
I feel I might never understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely vast for
me. I am taking a look ahead to your subsequent put
up, I will try to get the grasp of it!
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you
relied on the video to make your point. You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just
posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something
informative to read?
Fastidious response in return of this matter with firm arguments and explaining everything on the topic of that.
Can not wait to try my hand at this!
So many good ideas! I can’t wait for pumpkin patch day!
50 cents for pumpkins? Sounds amazing. My son would love this craft. Anything with painting or markers he’s all in. Going to pick some tiny pumpkins at the pumpkin patch now
This year, the little guys were actually 5 for $2! I have to go back and buy more.
Those are super cute! Thank you for the great ideas.
Hmmm this looks fun. Pumpkins are pretty cheap this year. Maybe I’ll buy extra for painting and carving
These pumpkins are so cool and easy to make – great idea – thanks
