Frosted Pumpkins

Add a little frosty bling to your mini pumpkins this fall season.

By gathering a few simple supplies and following these easy instructions, you will have a whole patch of frosted pumpkins in no time at all.
 
Supplies:
German Glass Glitter
(you may substitute regular silver glitter, but there nothing like using the "real" thing)
Glitter Glue
Mini Boo Pumpkins

 Apply glitter glue to the top of the pumpkins where you want the "frost" to adhere. 
 Sprinkle German Glass Glitter over glue - shake off onto a piece of paper so you can funnel the glitter back in the jar.
Allow to dry.
These frosty pumpkins are a sweet reminder of crisp, cool, frosty mornings. Place your frosted pumpkins in your fall vignettes to add a bit of bling or put a bunch of frosted pumpkins in a stoneware bowl for a punch of creamy frosted goodness. 
For a Halloween twist to the frosty mini pumpkins, add eyes, nose and mouth with glue then sprinkle with glitter to a bling your small jack-o-lantern.

Hope you find some time to add a little sparkle and frost to your fall decor.

Hope to see you on Monday, Oct 24th as Leah joins us as a Guest Gardener! 
See you then!
