Start with a clean black faux pumpkin. Apply a coat of StarLite varnish for a subtle sparkle, then drip colorful glitter paint from the top. Allow several hours to dry, moving occasionally to avoid sticking, for a stunning Halloween decoration.

Directions

Use a damp cloth to clean the pumpkin, removing any dust or dirt.

Brush on a layer of Americana StarLite varnish. This clear sealer contains glitter, appears milky when wet, and dries transparent. Let it dry completely.

Set the pumpkin on wax paper. Drip Glamour Dust glitter paint from the top, letting it run down the sides.

Let the paint dry for several hours, periodically shifting the pumpkin to prevent it from sticking to the wax paper.
