Turquoise pumpkins

 



The photo on the top I found in this month's Better Homes and Gardens.

The photo on the bottom is my own.

If you want to make your own marbled pumpkin in any color, you'll need a paper mâché pumpkin--available at Amazon, Jo Ann's, or Hobby Lobby.

You'll need some paper bowls to mix the three ingredients: paint, water, and Dawn.

And you'll need a straw to blow some bubbles before dipping the primed pumpkin into the paint solution.  I painted mine with a coat of white Gesso, but you can use any white paint. 

2 parts soap, 4 parts acrylic craft paint, 4 parts water.
