Supplies Needed for Pumpkin Paint Pour: Pumpkin Wood Cut Out Acrylic Craft Paint Pouring Medium Small Paper Cups Large Mixing Cup Stirring Sticks Plastic Tablecloth or garbage bag

Start by placing a plastic countertop on your work surface.

Begin by setting a plastic table cover on your work surface.

Then attach the carved wood to the tablecloth using a small paper cup.

Then prop the wood cut out on the tablecloth using little paper cups.

Mix one part pickling agent with one part paint and mix well in a small bowl.

Mix one part of the Paint Pouring Medium with one part paint and stir them up carefully in a little cup.

Mix together 1 cup white, a few shades of turmeric, and a few shades of orange. Add some metallic gold for fun!

Mix up a cup of white, a couple shades of yellow and a couple shades of orange. Add some metallic gold for fun too!

Then replace the mixed colors and pour into a large bowl. The layered color in the cup is like crap.

Then alternate colors of mixed paint and pour them in a larger mixing cup. Layer the colors in the cup like a bullseye.

Then pour the entire contents of the cup onto the laurel.

Then simply pour the entire contents of the cup all over the pumpkin.

Lift the pumpkin slightly and tilt it so that the paint covers the surface of the wood.

Lift and tilt the pumpkin around a bit to get the paint on all the wood surface.

Then mix gold and brown and pour over the stems.

Then mix up the gold and browns and pour them on the stem.

Now the hardest part is drying the paint. Bubbles form, which can be pushed through with a torch or relief rifle. Do not expose the paint to high temperatures, otherwise it will harden and crack.
In fact, it should dry out after a few weeks. The slower it dries, the better. Do not heat it up or keep it in the sun.

Now the tricky part is to let the paint dry. Some bubbles will form and can be popped using a torch or an embossing heat gun. Do not apply to much direct heat to the paint or it will harden weird and crack. Really, this needs to dry for a couple of weeks. The slower it dries, the better. Do not warm it up or place it in the sunshine.

After about 4-6 hours of drying, carefully insert it into the box until you can close the lid. This will prevent insects, hair and dust from getting into the paint. Then let it dry for two weeks. You can then cover the top with sheer sequins and hang it up so it doesn't fall off.

After about 4-6 hours of drying, transfer it carefully into a box, so you can close the lid. This will prevent bugs, hair and dust from falling in the paint. Then let it cure for seriously 2 weeks. Then you can finish off the top with clear gloss and hang it up for Autumn.
