Glitz and Gourds Project
Begin by mixing some Altered Orange acrylic paint with some Sable Brown acrylic paint to create a pumpkin color. Paint two paper mache pumpkins with the pumpkin color and paint the stem of the pumpkin with Charcoal Black acrylic paint and allow the pumpkins to dry. Once the paint has dried, paint over each pumpkin with Clear Rock Candy distress crackle paint and allow to dry. Take pieces of the black swirls and attach them to the top half of the pumpkin as shown. Add a few glue dots around the base of the stem and then wrap a piece of Hemp Twine around the stem, the glue dots will help keep the twine secure. Take a small piece of the black crystals and attach around the stem also.
