Glitter pumpkins

Martha Stewart made some cute glitter pumpkins so I thought I would try to make some as well.  I got the big pumpkin (with top cut off) at a thrift store for $0.25 and the smallest one came from the same thrift store and was $0.20.  I am so happy with the way they turned out.  I am heading back to Michaels tomorrow for more of the brown glitter.  Once I finish the brown I will glue them together and set them on my porch.







Supplies: pumpkins, glue or mod podge, paint brush or sponge brush, extra fine glitter, newspaper (so you don't get glitter everywhere).

Instructions:
1. Use a paint brush or sponge brush to apply glue to pumpkin (work in sections so the glue doesn't dry too quickly).
2. Sprinkle glitter over the glue and let dry
3. Shake off excess glue and put in back into the container  (I did 2 coats since I didn't want the orange showing through).
