DIY: Upcycled Plastic Pumpkins

Random Thoughts of a Super Mom has definitely captured our attention with this great and super simple DIY.  Check her out for more fun!


Just in case you want to make a HUGE mess and some SUPER cute pumpkins...here is the list of supplies and steps we followed to make them.
*******************************
Plastic pumpkins {mine were $1 at Walmart}
Scrapbook Paper {8 sheets for $1 at Target}
Mod Podge
Paint Brushes
*********************************
Tear scrapbook paper into small pieces
Attach the paper to the pumpkin and continue to coat it with Mod Podge until all the paper is wet and stuck to the pumpkin really well. This is the messy part, because the only way to make the paper stick really well is to work it with your hands!

Then use a foam paintbrush to apply a coat of Mod Podge all over the pumpkins and let them dry.
