You'll need

Directions

  1. Start with a standard plastic pumpkin-shaped bucket, which can be found at stores like Walmart.
  2. Apply multi-surface acrylic paint to the bucket's exterior using a sponge spouncer. Ordinary acrylic paint may not adhere well to plastic. Painting the inside is optional if you plan to fill it.
  3. Use bright silver acrylic paint to highlight the pumpkin's eyes and teeth, making them pop.
  4. With a fine brush, trace the eyes and mouth in black acrylic paint to define the edges.
  5. Attach Creatology Gems inside the eyes and mouth using Dimensional Glue, such as Glossy Accents.
  6. Insert a styrofoam block into the bucket, securing it with tissue paper. Then push black floral picks and decorative picks (like small black and white pumpkins) into the foam to complete the arrangement.
