Traditionally, we carve pumpkins this time of year. But, with Halloween still two weeks away, carving now, might be too early. So why not paint the pumpkin first? I was asked to paint some pumpkins for our church and I thought I would share them with you to help you get some inspiration for your own painted pumpkins.
Recognize these rather, well known characters? The pumpkins are the perfect shape and size to be a minion.
Do not get me wrong...I still plan on carving a pumpkin, its a tradition! And when you are a prize winning pumpkin carver (brag alert!) then you can imagine, I've got to still carve. But, like I said before, it's still kind of early to carve so PAINT! This year, our son picked out a little pumpkin from the pumpkin patch. It really is too small to carve so we are going to let him paint it. Then, my husband and I will carve the big ones while our son gets to play with the pumpkin guts. Since, Halloween is on a Saturday this year, we are planning to make a whole day of fun. So, I would like to inspire you to have a full day of traditions and fun with your family while still being creative. So, as usual, keep being the best artist you can be!
