| Halloween Gourd Face Recipe |
|
Source: Craft A Day
Gourds of any size or shape, of course this includes
pumpkins (especially those cute miniature ones)
Clear paint sealer (aerosol form is the
easiest to handle)
Fabric pieces - the brighter the better
Felt yarn ribbons
Little eyes (Found at any craft
store or make your own with fabric pieces)
Acrylic paints
Spray paint sealer
Hot glue gun
Once you have picked your gourd,
use a slightly damp sponge to clean
it off.
Spray the gourd with the sealer. This
will make the gourd have a shine and
prevent chipping of the paint. It dries
fairly quickly. Remember to spray in a
well-ventilated area.
Hair can be made with yarn or fabric strips.
The yarn can be braided or cut into strands
and glued to the top of the gourd. Fabric
and ribbons can be attached to the hair.
Paint faces onto gourd or pumpkin. Spray
paint sealer over the dried paint to
prevent chipping.
Cut out pieces of felt or fabric in the
shapes of mouth, eyes, ears and nose for
decoration. |
