Decorative Pumpkin Painted on Scrap Wood


It all started with a small piece of scrap wood.  The beginning of Fall.  This little project only took a few minutes, but will look great leaning against a pot of mums, or in any autumn themed space!

First, I stained the wood.  Always stain the wood!  :)

Here we go, nice and stained!

I let the stain "dry" for a few minutes (okay, I'm impatient) and used a creamy white to color block a pumpkin shape.  

I then used brown to make a stem and shade in some grooves.  I went in with another layer of cream to highlight the top of the pumpkin, as well as highlight the top of the stem.

And there you have it!  A new Fall decoration that only took you 10 minutes...assuming you didn't wait the allotted time for the stain to dry.  ;)
