Pumpkin Personalities!
My husband used to tease me about painting anything
that wasn’t moving…
Like pumpkins!
Since ‘Tis the season right now, let’s paint some pumpkins!
🎃
First, prep your pumpkins
- wipe them clean with a sponge and soft cloth
- Spray on an acrylic sealer
- Paint pumpkin with acrylic paint or spray paint
- When paint is dry spray on another layer of acrylic sealer
You can paint pumpkins to match your decor,
like these Patterned Pumpkins I painted for the beach house
Or these MacKenzie-Childs knock off Fanciful Pumpkins
Paint a pumpkin character for your entry to greet trick or treaters~
A cute face perhaps,
just shapes, lines, and white highlights!
Or a Spooky Haunted House!
Have Elvis croon you a tune 🎵
Use a tall pumpkin and add plastic hair or a wig
A Witchy Toad will keep the ghosts away
Paint a pumpkin green,
add eyes and warts with green balls,
green colored paper feet and a witch’s hat
Make a Pumpkin Ice Cream Cone,
it’s not scary at all!
Paint a pumpkin pink with chocolate sauce and sprinkles
Set it in a basket, decorative house trash can or planter
Surround the ice cream base with crushed pink tissue
and top with a piece of cotton and a cherry
Use one of those weird bumpy pumpkins, [ Goosebump pumpkin ]
and make
Are you feeling The Seaon of the Witch?
Don’t forget to save any unblemished pumpkins,
they make wonderful holiday decorations!

Be Fearless!

So many cute ideas; Elvis made me chuckle!
Such fun pumpkins Jenna. Love the haunted house and the Elvis. Too cute.
Thank you Linda! Elvis cracks me up!
These are all really fun. I’m HOPING we’ll have time with the kids before Halloween — this would be a fun project!
I hope so too!
You are so talented and clever! Thanks for sharing your talent.
Thank you so much!
Oh what a chuckle from all your beautiful pumpkins Jenna. Elvis is hilarious and who would have thought of that! And Christmas too. They are all so wonderfully creative and I love them all, but the bubbling cauldron and haunted house are especially appealing. You must have had so much fun painting them. Wishing you the happiest pumpkin season ever!
Thank you so much Kim! Pumpkins make great canvases! 🙂
I love the Elvis pumpkin!! You are so creative Jenna!
Thanks Jill, I wish I could take credit for the Elvis, it cracked me up!
