Glitter Dipped Pumpkins


Just a quick little pumpkin DIY for you - it's so easy to do and they look fab around the house, if you don't like the traditional Halloween decorations. 

All you need is - 
Munchkin pumkins (Veg section of supermarket)
Glitter - Hobby Craft
Masking tape
Paint brush
Glue
Shoe box






Wrap some masking tape around the pumpkins. Start from where you want the glitter to start. Next time I do these I will have the tape up a bit higher.


Cover the bottom half with glue and then sprinkle with glitter. Make sure to do this over the opened shoe box, to avoid a glitter bomb in your house.


So much glitter! Shake it off and if there are gaps, add some more glue and sprinkle again. And you are done. Leave to dry and then spray with hair spray to set the glitter. Et Voila - one super sparkly, non scary Halloween pumpkin.

Hugs & Kisses

DIY Glitter Pumpkins


I get far too excited for halloween and this year I decided to give some halloween decorating a go so that I can arrange them all around my house - it's the little things. Here are the ones that I ended up doing although there are so many all over Pinterest that i'm dying to try - there's always next year. All of these were so easy to do. I used cooking pumpkins instead of carving pumpkins. You will find them down the vegetable isle. The mini ones are called munchkin pumpkins. All from Tesco and Sainsbury. Will you be trying any of these?
