You will need:

pumpkin

paint (any color)

paintbrush

glitter (any color)

newspaper or other paper to keep the mess contained

bowls

plastic spoon

spray adhesive

I kept the mess in check by using leftover packing paper, but newspaper would work great, too. In fact, reusing materials like these not only helps in managing clutter effectively but also promotes a more sustainable approach to waste. Packing paper is sturdy and can absorb spills, while newspaper can be a quick and easy solution for wrapping fragile items to prevent damage. By creatively utilizing what I already have on hand, I can keep my space tidy and organized, making the cleanup process much more efficient. Plus, I feel good knowing that I’m reducing waste and making the most of my resources. This is especially useful when working on projects like DIY glitter thrifted pumpkins, where keeping the workspace clean is essential for a successful outcome.

You can easily find these pumpkins at a charity shop, thrift store, or craft store. Alternatively, give your existing pumpkins a fresh makeover.
