Pumpkin Painting Party

I hosted a pumpkin painting party for the neighborhood kindergarten kids. We have several new neighbors, this was a fun way for everyone to meet and greet.

Did some test painting before everyone showed up. Since my 2 year old is obsessed with Minnie Mouse right now… look what I made her!!

(Note: I used wooden skewers to stick the small ear pumpkins into Mini’s head.)

Time for the party to begin!

I found tiny aprons at Hobby Lobby. They were half off! Love Hobby Lobby!

I also found some foil cupcake pans at the grocery store, then filled each cupcake area with paint and a brush. No mixing the paint this way! I also covered the tables with press and seal cling wrap. It just sticks right to the table and no mess! Target has some cute Halloween press and seal.

Contests are always fun at parties. The kids all loved guessing how many pumpkins were in the jar. They each had to write down a number several times! Can you guess how many? (41 is the magic number!)

My son guessed 88. He cried when he didn’t get the prize.

Of course there were lots of “P” snacks. Popcorn, punch, pretzels and pumpkin bread!

      @Louise,
      After I had pumpkins in different sizes sitting around the

      house in arrangements for Halloween, I would spray paint

      them gold and silver for Thanksgiving and Christmas

      decorations. Arranged by the fireplace (gas) with lots of

      other holiday decorations, floral, etc, it really looked classy.
