Directions

  1. Using a paintbrush, coat your pumpkin (either real or faux) with Mod Podge or a similar craft glue.
  2. While the adhesive is still wet, generously dust glitter over the entire surface.
  3. Gently tap the pumpkin to remove loose glitter, catching the excess on newspaper or a drop cloth.
  4. Allow the pumpkin to dry fully.
  5. If you want a thicker glitter layer, repeat the painting and glittering steps until you're satisfied.
  6. Once dry, show off your sparkly pumpkin as is, or dress it up with extras like a ribbon or bow.
