Painting Pumpkins Tips

Paint. Most of these tutorials call for acrylic paint, which will be the best option!
Sealing. If you plan to have your pumpkin outdoors, be sure it’s sealed so the weather doesn’t destroy your masterpiece!
Pumpkin. Fake pumpkins will work best for painting pumpkins, but real ones can work too! Just keep in mind, if you use a real pumpkin your painting will have an expiration date!
