Glittered Pumpkins
These decorations bring sparkle to tables and serving areas -- and they last far longer than jack-o'-lanterns.

steps
-
Use a medium-size paintbrush to spread a layer of white glue over the surface of a small pumpkin.
-
Hold pumpkin over a paper plate or a sheet of newspaper to catch excess glitter. Sprinkle powder glitter over pumpkin in several colors (we used penny, persimmon, orange, and pink champagne), covering completely.
-
Let dry for about one hour; shake off excess glitter.
-
Coat stem with brown acrylic paint; let dry. Pumpkins will keep for months.
