Halloween Decopatch Pumpkins
Pumpkins are indispensable in a Halloween decoration. Do you not have real pumpkins but do you want a cozy decoration in your home? Then make your own pumpkin mood light hanger and paste papier-mache pumpkins in your own style! The advantage is that you can bring out the decoration every year, unlike real pumpkins. And say yourself, homemade decorations are much, and much more fun! In addition, you make something, which is not so in stores, so more original can not be.
Today we have been working on the Décopatch technique. That is, stick pieces of thin paper on a substrate, with a glue and varnish in one. Very simple to do, but therefore also wonderfully relaxing. You don't have to think about it!
Because the paper (the Décopatch paper) is as thin as a layer of a napkin, they are also somewhat translucent. That's why we painted the papier-mache pumpkins white first. This way the colours come out fresher than with a brownish surface. We like it better, but it doesn't necessarily have to be!
The pieces of torn paper (cut is also allowed!) go one by one on the pumpkin. Glue, piece of paper, and over it with the same glue. The papers can simply overlap each other, the seams you won't see later. Vary with the motifs, everything can and nothing must!
Before decorating, you do not have to wait all the way until the glue/varnish has dried. With the Viva Decor Glitter you make nice glitterdos, e.g. green or gold color. That glitter needs to dry for a while, so please wait, before you can hang it or decorate it on your creepy theme table or atmosphere corner. You can also decorate them on a dish, with some green, for on the table!
