Don't Throw Those Old Halloween Pumpkins Out

3 Materials
So I had a bunch of pumpkins leftover from Halloween, just rotting on my deck. Well, that's no good. What did I do? I used glitter and glue to transform them into sparkling showstoppers for my Thanksgiving table, because who doesn't love a pretty table?
No need to buy new, I love giving old things fresh life, just like I did when I recycled a few old ceiling fan blades into a really neat craft that you can see right here.
Ok. So here is the really complicated tutorial. Are you ready? Just kidding. This is literally the easiest craft I have ever done... actually, all of my crafts are easy and elegant, including this round up of 20 simple crafts for fall...of course, this one is very messy, it's glitter after all.
I painted glue on to the pumpkin and then sprinkled white glitter on to the surface. That's it.
Now. I will say that photos, don't do this baby justice. Glitter does not photograph well. Of course, it may just be the photographer! ;)


In person, it is actually stunning...not like l dropped it in the sand at the beach...like it does here!


It looks like an orange encrusted gem and sparkles from every angle.
