Glitter Pumpkins

Whether you are putting out the last minute decorations for trick or treaters or getting a head-start on Thanksgiving decor, these Glitter Pumpkins do double duty. Make them for Halloween. Keep them up for your Thanksgiving guests. I tend to make these every year. This year, at age 3, Blake was more then willing to take over the task.

Items Needed:
Glitter
Elmer's Glue
Mini and medium size pumpkins
Foam paint brush
Paper plate

Cover your table with an old sheet or paper. Spread a generous amount of the Elmer's glue onto paper plate and take your foam brush to it. Use glue as paint. Paint your pumpkin wherever you want glitter to stick. Sprinkler glitter. You are done.

Let dry for an hour or so--depending on just how much glue your little helper uses ;-) to help. Also, be prepared for the few stray glitter remements to stick around on your table if you don't cover the entire table top with a sheet! We still have lovely pieces of red and orange glitter on our table, and it slowly is coming off. But hey, who doesn't love glitter?!
