Painted pumpkins are a great way to add Halloween décor in or outside your home. Learn how to mak your own custom painted pumpkins using Rust-Oleum spray paint.

  1. Use Painter’s Touch 2X Ultra Cover spray paint in Purple and Dark Gray to add festive pops of color to your faux pumpkins. Shake the can for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. Hold your can of spray paint 10-16” from the pumpkin’s surface and apply light coats of spray paint in a steady, back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke for even coverage. Wait a few minutes between each coat to ensure even coverage. Apply a second coat within one hour or after 48 hours.
  2. Once fully dry, arrange your painted pumpkins in your Halloween decorative display!
