Note: This project is best done outside or in a room with excellent ventilation

Materials

  • White mini pumpkin

  • Nail polish

  • Water container large enough to hold the pumpkin

  • Toothpicks

  • Q-tips

Directions

  1. Fill a container with room temperature water. It’s important the water is room temperature so the polish can spread  easily

  2. With the nail polish brush close to the water, shake the brush and let the polish fall into the water. Be sure the brush is close to the water otherwise the polish will sink to the bottom.

  3. Add additional colors and work quickly before the polish can dry.

  4. Holding the pumpkin by the stem, submerge the pumpkin into the water. It’s best to dunk the pumpkin sideways if you can otherwise most of the polish will end up on the bottom of the pumpkin.

  5. Once the pumpkin is covered, remove it from the water. You can wipe away any excess polish that is hanging off the pumpkin with a Q-Tip.

  6. Dry pumpkins for about an hour.
