Simple White Pumpkins

Good Evening!!  Hope you had a great weekend.  Tonight I want to share with you a Fall display I have been working on.  As many of you know our dining room has a lot of white in it.  So I wanted to stay with that color palette with my Fall decor as well.  The only problem with that is most of the white pumpkins I found were either more money than I wanted to spend or not a true white.  So as I was getting my Fall decor out I found a few pumpkins that would look great in there but the wrong color...
As you can see the one on the right is BRIGHT orange and the other one is not too bad but still not white!!  So while I was at Wal-Mart I found these cute little pumpkins..."kinda" white but still not right...but I thought for $1 each I could fix that!!
So to get the color/look I wanted I just used white spray paint...ta da..White Pumpkins!!!!
They were super easy to do...I put tape around the stems so they would stay brown then I wore a rubber glove so I could twirl them as I painted.  They dried really fast and seems like the paint will hold up for a few seasons.  I love how they turned out!!
I am still adding to my display but it's a start!!
