How and How Long:
- Paint the pumpkins three different colors with craft paint or your favorite Krylon spray paint and let dry over night.
- Apply one layer of Glitter Blast paint to add some sparkle to the pumpkins and let dry overnight.
- The next day, I stencilled on the house numbers and went over them with glow in the dark paint and let that dry (I added several layers!).
- Once dry, I took my Strofoam cube and trimmed it with a bread knife and put it inside the bucket.
- I cut a dow rod long enough to go through the cube and through each of the three pumpkins, but not going through the top of the top pumpkin.
- Angle the pumpkins so they aren't perfectly straight. I used a hot glue gunbetween the pumpkins to keep them in place.
- Add moss to the top of the bucket.
Approximate project time: 2 days. Most of the time was waiting for the paint to dry between each step.
