Step 3: Painting Faux Pumpkins

Behr’s aerosol chalk decorative paint is a good option when you are looking for a fast color change. It is easy to use and dries fairly quickly. We used the color Gingham to transform our pumpkins.

Set up an outdoor area where pumpkins can be sprayed.

Once the pumpkins have fully dried, place your pumpkins on and around your tier.
