Michael's had their pumpkins and gourds 50% off, so I got both bags for $5 each. Paint and paint brushes were under $5 total, and the gloss spray paint was around $5 with a 40% off coupon I printed before heading into the store. After painting, I still had lots of the paint and glaze leftover for future projects, along with the sponge brushes. I'm having to build up my craft supplies!
Our paint choices.
"Look, Mom"! She loved painting, and I loved watching her paint! And, yes, those are Christmas pj's in October!
She concentrates so hard! I love her little hands and delicate touches with the paint brush!
After painting the pumpkins and gourds and letting them dry, we took them outside and gave them a spray with this glaze finish. And, it dried super-quick.

Pretty cute, I must say!
Added some acorns.
I picked up this pumpkin at Michael's for $1. Just added some acorns I had collected from my parent's home. The little stand was a Goodwill find.
A fun project for some fun fall decor. Once again, happy fall to all!
