Video DIY Decorative Pumpkin for Fall
Explore this delectable recipe for a decorative pumpkin! Start by preparing a balloon, inflating it to your desired size, and securing it. Next, mix plaster to a smooth consistency, ensuring there are no lumps. Coat the entire surface of the balloon with this mixture, letting it dry completely to form a hard shell. Once dry, carefully pop the balloon and peel it away, revealing a hollow pumpkin shape. The fun continues as you create accents using self-hardening clay for a lovely stem and leaves. To give your pumpkin a touch of elegance, apply some gold leaf and finish with a splash of spray paint for color. After it dries, you’ll have a stunning decorative pumpkin perfect for any fall celebration or Halloween decor. What do you think of the result?
