Recipe 1

Craft Pumpkins ( as many as you’ll need)Spray Paint Gold PaintTissue PaperMod Podge Decoupage Paint brush or paint sponge

Get your pumpkins and spray or paint them white, then let them dry. Painting it white helps to hide the orange color.  If your pumpkin is small-sized, cut your tissue paper into square sizes that would be large enough to cover the pumpkin. Then you use Mod Podge to cover the whole pumpkin. Pick your tissue paper and use it to cover the whole pumpkin, make sure the stem pierces through. Press the whole tissue on the pumpkin carefully, and make sure any trapped air bubbles are released. Trim out the excess paper. Cover the whole pumpkin with another layer of Mod Podge and allow it to dry. After it drys, paints the stem with gold paint or any color you want.  If your pumpkin is medium-sized, first of all, cut your tissue paper into different 5 inches long and 2 inches wide pieces. Cover the outside of the pumpkin with a small amount of Mod Podge. Make sure you press the paper from the top to the bottom of the pumpkin. Use your fingers to make the paper flat, do not forget not to cover the stem up. Keep applying the paper and pressing it until the whole pumpkin is properly covered. Apply the Mod Podge and let it dry. When it’s dry, you can paint the stem with gold paint or any color you want.

When constructing Mod Podge, can you use real or fake pumpkins? 

People frequently inquire about it, and the best part is that you can utilize both of them! Whether you use a real pumpkin or a fake pumpkin is irrelevant. Any of these will do. The longevity of tificial pumpkins is a benefit. Even though it will be less expensive, a real pumpkin can only be utilized for a season before it must be thrown away.

What Kind of Paint Should I Use?

I suggest using acrylic paint while painting pumpkins rather han oil-based. It dries quickly, is simple to apply, and cleanup is simple. Because acrylic is water-based, you may start over if you make a mistake by wiping it off with a rag. Oil-based paint can be funny and takes a long time to dry. To clean the paint brushes, you’ll also need paint thinner. To prevent the vivid orange of the pumpkin from coming through, most acrylic craft paints will need more than one coat; however, because acrylic is inexpensive and dries quickly, you can layer numerous applications for complete coverage in the least period.
