Directions
- I spray painted three of the pumpkins white and the other two black. But first I PRIMED them.
- I also spray painted the dowel black
- Then I drilled 1″ holes in the pumpkins. I wanted each one to be tilted to each side, alternating. So I marked the spot with an sharpie and drilled.
- Then I planted soil and flowers in the pot and put the dowel in the middle.
- I alternated the pumpkins, white, black, white, black, white black. On the last pumpkin I didn’t put the second hold through the top, so the dowel rests against the inside of the top pumpkins. I hope that makes sense lol.
- Then I threaded the lights down through the back of the pumpkins and plugged them into the extension cord. I taped the cords together with electrical tape so they wouldn’s show as much.
