Chippy Paint Pumpkin Tutorial

Chippy Paint Pumpkin Tutorial

It never ceases to amaze me to think of all the fun things you can do with a single pumpkin.

Pumpkins really are perfect just the way mother nature makes them, but a true maker simply can’t resist to put their own spin and personality to this cute round member of the squash family.

1. Pumpkin 2. Blow Dryer 3. Paint 4. Foam Paint Brush

HERE IS WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

1

Start with a nice and clean surface on your pumpkin.

2

Choose which color(s) of paint you will be using. I opted to try a combo of Martha Stewart white paints.

3

Begin by giving the pumpkin a first coat of paint. Rather than letting it air dry, speed things up with a blow dryer on high heat. Give the pumpkin a second coat of paint and proceed to blow dry it as well.

4

Then all you will do to make the paint chip, is take it over to the sink and run some water over the surface of the pumpkin.
