Dollar Tree Pumpkin Goes Coastal

I have been looking all over for white or coastal looking pumpkins. Every thing that I find is so expensive and  not within my budget.  As I was strolling through Dollar Tree last week, I found it! Pumpkins within my budget but not the right color. These pumpkins were made from foam on the inside and smooth on the outside.  I bought 4 and went straight home to get started.  Here is a picture of what they looked like with painters tape on the stems.

Next, I put a garbage bag down on the floor and spray painted them white.  It took several coats. I let them dry over night.

 Then I took some blue paint that I had in the shed and made stripes on the pumpkin grooves.  The last step was to take a dry brush and lightly go over the rest of the pumpkin with the blue paint. Again I wanted that coastal look. 

Here is one in it's new home.

 

 

 

These little cuties are just what I was looking for and had the just right price of $1.00 each. 



Thanks for reading my post!! 

Have a great day everyone :)
