Welcome Painters & Paint Lovers!!!
Hope you guys had a wonderful weekend. We got back from San Diego last night after a fabulously fun weekend with family. I almost completely forgot that today was Tuesday… how could I forget the Power of Paint Party? Having a Monday off throws my whole week off.
Last week I shared with you guys how I created a faux mercury glass effect with spray paint…
you can read all the details from last weeks PoPP here.
Well I decided to try the same technique on some plastic pumpkins and gourds.
To make the speckled effect I sprayed the pumpkin with a mist of water and then immediately spray painted the pumpkin with my Aluminum spray paint.
Here they are next to some more plastic pumpkins and gourds that I painted creamy Heirloom White. I love the creamy white and silver together!
So what have you been painting?
oooh i love the creamy white pumpkins! glad you had a nice weekend!
My days are so mixed up now! Monday just threw me off. I love the "mercury glass" pumpkins! Thanks for hosting.

The silver and white is so classy looking! Love the speckled effect with the silver!
This is so cute and sophisticated looking! I love it. I'm off to find some pumpkins to paint! Seriously, I never think about decorating for fall because things are pretty…orange out there. I love these and your burlap pumpkins as well. I featured them on my blog! I hope you can stop by to check it out.

I liked the vases, but I LOVE the pumpkins. So cute! I am going to have to try this one…
I need to try that, they look so pretty. Thanks for hosting again. Hope you had a great vacation.
Great idea with the water misting! I'm actually thinking about spraying the inside of a green vase with silver paint. I'm curious how it comes out. As always, thanks for hosting.
