Mickey Ghost Thumbprint Pumpkins
Supplies:
- Craft pumpkins
- Pink acrylic paint
- Foam paint brush
- White acrylic paint
- Black acrylic paint
- Q-tips
- Black felt tip pen, medium tip
Instruction:
If you’d like to have the stem a different color, either pop the stem off the craft pumpkin or carefully cover the stem with painter’s tape. Use a foam paint brush to paint the craft pumpkin pink. Allow to dry completely and apply a second coat of paint if needed.
When the pumpkin is completely dry, use white acrylic paint to create fingerprint ghosts on the pumpkin. Allow to dry completely.
Use a Q-tip to create black Mickey ears on the ghosts.
When ears are completely dry, use a black felt tip pen to add the Mickey Ghost’s eyes and mouth.
If you removed the plastic stem, put it back on. Be sure to mark your child’s name and date on the bottom of the pumpkin.
