After Halloween and before Thanksgiving the kids are crazy about pumpkins. Here is a fun way to use those pumpkins and start decoratiing your home for Thanksgiving in a really cute and creative way using some simple products to create a decoupaged pumpkin.
WHAT YOU NEED
- - Pumpkin
- - Small squares of tissue paper
- - Decoupage solution - 'Mod Podge' or mixture of white liquid glue and water
- - Brush
- - Newspaper to cover work area
HOW TO:
- Coat the pumpkin in decoupage solution
- Completely cover pumpkin with tissue paper squares by layering - don't worry if they don't stick completely at this point
- Add more decoupage solution if it dries too quickly
- Once pumpkin is covered in tissue paper, brush over entire pumpkin with decoupage solution to smooth paper and seal
- Leave to dry. If possible, place on top of wide-mouth jar to dry so pumpkin doesn't stick to your work surface
