Glitter Pumpkin Craft

My son has an addiction to pumpkins, currently we have about 6 of all different shapes and sizes.  I can’t help but buy them because they are so cheap and we can do a decent amount of activities with them.  We can draw a face on them, paint them, carve them, spray paint them, put stickers all over them, glue feathers and eyeballs on them (we did this and he took it all off once it dried), the list is never ending.

Today I decided to try something different and girly with “my” pumpkin.  I’m not crafty at all, although I would love to be, so this is super simple and inexpensive.  Kellan got to paint his pumpkin red and I took out some Martha Stewart glue and sparkles that I had laying around.  The pumpkins we got from Sprouts for $.99 and all I did was take a paintbrush, cover that bumpy thing with glue and poured sparkles all over it.  Voila!  You have the prettiest little pumpkin and it only took 5 minutes to complete.  We did all of this outside, of course, and now my patio is covered in fairy dust!  Enjoy 🙂
