Glitter love - Halloween Pumpkins

I purchased a few mini-pumpkins for Thanksgiving and decided to give them a Halloween makeover.  I was working on another project at the time and already had my chalkboard paint out.  The next step was to get out some silver paint and my gigantic box of glitter.

Trying out Martha Stewart's chalkboard paint for the first time 

Big box of glitter - I do have a problem 

Time to try some silver metallic paint

Now add some pumpkin coloured glitter 

So pretty but so messy 

Two-tone effect 

Finished product - a little hairspray seals the glitter and adds some shine

Covet Garden - Issue 27

I'm taking some time this holiday Monday to catch up on some blogs I follow and read a few on-line magazines.  Issue 27 of Covet Garden is available and the styling for the cover represents autumn perfectly.
