Paint Pour Pumpkin Wood Sign for Autumn!
Pumpkin draws color for autumn!
With autumn approaching, you can smell the spicy scent of pumpkin! This whimsical wet pumpkin is the perfect fall outfit...but buy it now because it takes weeks to install!
Filling with paint is a lot of fun! This is the perfect craft for any skill level and is very addictive! Available at Oriental Trading, this beautifully carved wooden gourd is the perfect place to find something for every occasion.
Supplies needed to throw pumpkin paint:
small paper cup
large mixing bowl
steering wheel
Plastic tablecloth or trash bag
Start by placing a plastic countertop on your work surface.
Then attach the carved wood to the tablecloth using a small paper cup.
Mix one part pickling agent with one part paint and mix well in a small bowl.
Mix together 1 cup white, a few shades of turmeric, and a few shades of orange. Add some metallic gold for fun!
Then replace the mixed colors and pour into a large bowl. The layered color in the cup is like crap.
Then pour the entire contents of the cup onto the laurel.
Lift the pumpkin slightly and tilt it so that the paint covers the surface of the wood.
Then mix gold and brown and pour over the stems.
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.
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.
