This pumpkin painted like Taylor Swift would be a treat to see on Halloween.  Like carving Jack-o'-Lanterns, painting pumpkins is something that's super fun that the whole family can do for Halloween.  While your artistic skills may not be like this professional painter who painted hers to look like Taylor Swift, it all starts with the right way to paint.  This includes the right type of paint and correct brushes.

Pumpkin Painting Materials

According to Scraplifters.com, there is a right and wrong way to paint a pumpkin.  If you use the wrong type of paint, it could become very flakey and not even make it to the front porch for Halloween.  To avoid any kind of painting mishaps, the first thing you should do is seal your pumpkin with acrylic sealer.  You can apply the sealer with a spray or brush.  My wife and I prefer a spray when it comes to sealing.  Next, grab your favorite acrylic paint colors, and some cheap foam brushes, and get ready to prep for painting.

Prepping For Painting

Make sure to paint on a surface you don't mind getting paint on.  If it's nice enough, we like to paint outside on a plastic paint sheet or an old bed sheet.  Next, inspect your pumpkin for any dents or rough spots and give it a wipe-down so you have a clean surface to paint on.  Once the surface is clean, apply the sealer to the pumpkin a section at a time.  Once you've sealed your pumpkin and it dries, you'll be ready to paint!

Make It Your Own
