No Carve Pumpkins
I thought you might enjoy some “no carve” pumpkin craft and decorating ideas. Some of us either don’t want to deal with the mess or simply are looking for a little something different. A grown up version is always fun!
The gold pumpkins are great because I use them for Thanksgiving decorating too. Place them on your fireplace mantel, on your table, or on your porch.
Decorate a pumpkin with sparkles, patterns, embellishments,designs. Use a dry erase marker to draw your pattern then just paint or hot glue your way to a grown up pumpkin. Use candies, beads,ribbon,buttons, etc. and adhere them to your pumpkins. I hope you find these ideas fun, they’re all very easy to do and only require a few supplies and patience. Remember if you are using paint to create, make sure you work in a well ventilated area.
What You Need
Paint
Spray Paint
Hot glue /glue gun
Dry erase marker
Candy, Sequins, beads, brick a brack, for decorating
Clean up supplies, newspaper, cloth, sponge.
Have Fun!You can always include the kids too ( wink)

I'm only using "adult pumpkins" now too. And, like you, I have some bronzed ones I use through Thanksgiving. I did buy one large real pumpkin to put by the front door with my scarecrows. I hope it last until Halloween. We still get sooo much sun aimed right at our front door.
Hugs,
