Last day of Fall

Since this is the last day in fall thought I would post pics of my pumpkin art work.
I got the idea from the October Country Living magazine, just changing the process here and there. 



Start with inexpensive faux pumpkins, got this one from Wal Mart.



Bought a few more pumpkin sizes and gave 'em three coats of white acrylic paint or choose your favorite fall color. 



Final step - use modge podge and glue pieces of toile paper onto pumpkin; when completely dry lightly sand the pumpkin.  Add a bow (could be ribbon, piece of fabric, etc.)  These are so cool and I actually sold one at a crafts show in November.  They are light and easy to store and decorative for years to come!
