Dollar Tree Pumpkin Makeover

Learn how to transform an inexpensive Dollar Tree pumpkin into a fabulous Fall home decor piece, with just a few coats of spray paint!

Looking for a little last minute (and inexpensive) Fall home decor? Grab a few of these Dollar Tree pumpkins and some leftover cans of spray paint and let’s do this! {FTC disclaimer: this post contains affiliate links which means I might make a little money if you buy something.}

supplies needed:

• Dollar Tree pumpkin
• spray paint
• painter’s tape
• metal washers (optional)

how to make makeover dollar store pumpkins:

Remove tags from pumpkins and cover stems with painter’s tape.

Use spray paint to cover pumpkins in assorted colors. Warning – the gold paint (two different brands – I have a LOT of gold spray paint) seemed to eat away at the pumpkins…you can see if you look closely at the final photos. The non-gold colors worked like a dream!

Let dry and remove painter’s tape. If placing the pumpkins outside glue a metal washer to the bottom of each pumpkin to give it some weight.

Add to your Fall display and enjoy! Note: these have been sitting out on our front porch for over a week – it has rained the past two days and they still look fab!

Also, if spray paint is not your thing, and you are looking for another way to use these pumpkins, then check out my Facebook Live! During the Facebook Live, I show you how to decorate these pumpkins using yarn!
