I participated in a Halloween "Boo-tique" last weekend and I made up a bunch of these book page pumpkins that I am excited to share with you.
They are super easy to make. I just grabbed a bunch of these foam pumpkins from the dollar store.
Then I lightly sprayed them with the cheapest white spray paint I could find. I did this to make sure that none of the orange would show through once I applied the book pages.
Then I used Mod Podge to apply the book pages to the entire pumpkin. Once it was all covered, I glittered the stem using Martha Stewart glitter adhesive and glitter {my favorite!}.
I then embellished each of the pumpkins with ribbons, sheet music pinwheels {Tutorial Here}, leaves {also from the dollar store}, and more glitter! That was the fun part.
I think book pages look so perfect with Halloween decor because of their black and cream coloring.
My favorite kind of books to use are old encyclopedias and dictionaries because their words are nice and tight together. But, really, any books will work.
What a fun and inexpensive way to add to Halloween decor!
