Materials
- Plastic Jack-O-Lantern - I found this one at Dollaramma for $5.
- Rustoleum Flat White Spray Paint - you could use glossy too but I love the flat finish that this pumpkin has. Rustoleum is an awesome paint to use on plastic check out how it held up on our playground slide!
- Permanent Black Sharpie Markers - I used three different tip sizes.
- Diffuser for Essential Oils - this one from Amazon is a favorite and fits perfectly in the Jack O Lantern.
- Sharp knife exacto knife or scissors.
Instructions
- 1. Place the plastic jack o lantern on a clean, dry surface covered in newspaper or a drop cloth.
- 2. Prepare the spray paint by giving it a good shake.
- 3. Spray paint the entire pumpkin white. Allow the paint to dry between coats. You will need 2-3 coats of paint for good coverage.
- 4. Use a sharp knife to carefully carve out a section at the back of the pumpkin that is large enough to fit the diffuser in.
5. Use a black sharpie to draw festive Halloween designs all over the pumpkin. - 6. Finally, place the diffuser inside of the pumpkin and turn it on.
