Halloween Gourds

DIY

Sun Protection Done Right

Dried gourds are great for Fall decorating, but we took them up a notch to use for Halloween decorating with this easy DIY idea!

Sun Protection Done Right

For our ghost gourds, we found this shape is best.  You want a smaller top and wider bottom for best results.

If you're not artist, not to worry.  We have free downloadable templates for you to use for this cute project!

Using a pencil, we traced a ghost face onto the top half of the gourd,  Then we filled it in with black paint.

For the lower half, we traced a circle and then filled it in with tan pant to mimic the color of the moon.  

We then traced and painted in a witch over the moon.  We did different versions of this, with the bottom of some as a pumpkin face.

We had gourds of other shapes that we made into other Halloween characters too!  See them all via the link below!
