Directions
- Begin by giving orange foam pumpkins a coat of white spray paint. Allow them to fully dry before proceeding. If you already have white pumpkins, this step can be skipped.
- For a 'Bunch Them Up' look, use hot glue to attach a cluster of small and medium pom-poms to the front of the pumpkin.
- To create the 'Think Big!' design, glue large 2-inch pom-poms in a ring around the middle of the pumpkin.
- For a 'Go Polka-Dot!' style, randomly glue small 1/2-inch pom-poms all over the pumpkin.
