Pumpkin Craftin'

Hi Love Bugs!

Today I want to share with you a few 

ways to decorate pumpkins. I adore LOVE pumpkins

so when I stumbled upon decorative pumpkin ideas

via Pinterest, I just had to try them out.

Thumbstack Initial

How adorable is this? AND it's so easy to make!

To start, draw your letter on the pumpkin with a pencil 

or free hand it. Once you have the letter drawn, simply

take your thumbtack and place it on the letter. Push in and

 ta-da you're done. You could even add swirl designs next to 

the letter for an artsy touch.  

Gold Design

I love gold so when I discovered you can 

spray paint pumpkins gold--I was all over it.

 To start, wash off your pumpkin and dry it with a towel.

Removing any dirt will help the paint go on easier. 

Take any tape and place around middle of the pumpkin.

This will help you get an even line when you spray. 

Spray paint lower part of pumpkin. Let dry for 30 minutes. 

Take a black marker and make any design around pumpkin.

How amazing does this look? I love how it 

turned out. I added in plain pumpkins

for contrast so they wouldn't look too 

overwhelming. I can't wait to try different

designs + colors next year. 

 Sincerely,

Ashley Nicole, xo
