Painted white faux pumpkin

by Mary Insana

Today while watching the Pittsburgh Pirates beat St. Louis I needed something I could work on without moving around too much. Lol
I had been wanting to paint my white foam pumpkin. I pulled out my stencils, paint pen and a drill.

First, stencil traced and then pained in with a black paint pen.

@Diane I love my battery operated candles. They have timers in them. I must have about 12 in various places around the house. Looks especially nice as a night light in a bathroom. I have one more box of 5 that I haven't opened.
