Hi everyone, Sandee here today to share with you how I recycled some Halloween crafts from last year into this years upscale pumpkin. I don't think I've ever had such a fancy schmancy pumpkin before!
Last year for Helmar I showed how to create the glittered spider web and spiders.
( How to make glittery spiders and spider web doilies. )
First I laid my glittered spider web doily flat and adhered some dangly beads with my Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.
I then set the doily over the pumpkin after cutting a hole in the top to see how the fit matched up with the size of the pumpkin. It was a little too large so I had to make some adjustments by altering the doily by clipping some of it's webs and regluing them back together with my Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive. I have to say that I am continually impressed with the Helmar Craft & Hobby PVA Glue as it stayed flexible a year later!! And the Helmar Crystal Kote Gloss Varnish kept all the glitter intact! Awesome, huh?
Next I added some leaves that I had painted to the top of the pumpkin stem and then finished it off by adding the glittery spiders!
