When we were kids we never carved pumpkins. Too messy, mom said. We only ever painted them.
I was talking about this the other night and my friend must have overheard because she brought me a white pumpkin the next day so I can paint it 💜
First I was going to paint a bunch of different candies all over it, candy corn was the first thing that came to mind. But as I kept walking and thinking, I said nah, I'm gonna paint the candy corn tri-color over the whole pumpkin then do a classic Jack o lantern on top, but with eyelashes. Yes.
But then I knew that wouldn't take too long and I really wanted to spend the evening painting. So Dia de Muertos it became.
I'm so glad I decided to add the white!!
