YAY !! On the other hand, this will be the last DIY for the Fall season. 🙁 BUT…..Christmas DIYs will start soon. 🙂

MY THRIFT STORE PUMPKIN
I found a pumpkin canister while shopping at a Goodwill store last weekend. I have seen these canisters at Walmart, never picked one up but thought about it a couple times. When I saw it on the Goodwill’s shelf I didn’t hesitate picking it up.
I am going to paint the inside of the canister. Very easy to do. Just add the paint and swirl it around. That’s about it.
Here are the supplies I am using.
- pumpkin canister
- 4 colors of craft paint – orange, dark orange, metallic gold and white
SHOP SUPPLIES HERE
I applied all 4 colors of paint inside the pumpkin. I used a generous amount.
I stirred the paint a little to mix it up.
I swirled the paint to cover the entire inside of the pumpkin and placed it upside down on a paper plate to drain. I did the inside of the lid the same way.
I let it sit upside down for over 2 hours. I then turned them right side up and cleaned the outside of the pieces. Letting them sit over night.
The last thing I did was I placed battery operated fairy lights inside. I love those Dollar Tree lights. I have several and probably buy a couple more this Christmas season.
A very warm and cozy look, don’t you think?
