How to Make a Hand Painted Pumpkin
To start, take the stencil and a pencil and trace the vines around the pumpkin. You can trace as many vines as you want.
I traced the vines around my entire pumpkin and made it very full.
When you are done tracing the next step is hand painting, but don’t worry you don’t need paint and a paintbrush, all you need is a gold Painters marker. Simply color over your traced outlines. Start on one side of the pumpkin and move your way around until you have colored the entire thing.
I love super simple projects. I could easily make a couple of these to add to my fall decor.
What color will you choose for your hand painted pumpkin?

September 4, 2015 at 7:45 amGreat tutorial and video. Looks so great but a really simple project! In the UK we don’t make as much fuss about decorating for the different seasons but I love the way in the US you do. I really should start taking on this tradition. Fall is actually my favourite season too, well apart from the rain. Over from Funtastic Friday
