Top Tip
Make sure to wash your pumpkin thoroughly and dry it completely before painting. This helps the paint adhere smoothly and ensures a flawless finish.
How to Make
Step 1
Take your pumpkin and give it a fresh coat of white paint. This creates a clean base and helps the autumn leaf accents stand out beautifully.
Step 2
Once the white base is completely dry, start painting leaf shapes in warm autumn colours like red, orange, yellow, and brown.
Step 3
Use contrasting colours to define the edges of your leaf shapes, adding depth and detail to your design. For an extra seasonal touch, paint small acorns around the leaves to complete the autumn-inspired look.
Step 4
Highlight a few of the leaves with gold paint or accents. This shimmering detail will make your autumn pumpkin truly stand out as a centerpiece.
