Step 1

First, cover your working surface with a disposable tablecloth.

Step 2

Place a cup in the middle of your working surface and set the pumpkin on top of the cup.
TIP: Make sure you can reach all sides of the pumpkin, but the pumpkin is far enough away that when paint runs off, it remains on the disposable tablecloth.

Step 3

Pour black Ready-to-Pour paint over the pumpkin, then pour the white. Alternate the black and white until you get the coverage and are happy with the look.

Step 4

Let the pumpkin sit overnight to dry.
