Aluminum Can Fall Pumpkins
In years past I've made pumpkins with wine corks, barbecue grates, bake ware and even Mason Jar lids!
I call them my junky punkys!

Right now I'm painting up a couple of aluminum cans leftover from dinner... can't let anything go to waste around here!
I mixed up a batch of beautiful orange chalky paint using yellow chalky paint and red chalky paint.
Mixing these 2 colors can give you any shade of orange you'd like.
Don't want to buy chalky paint?
How about making your own with the instructions here.
I added a green glass cabinet knob as the stem and a curly spring for the tendrils.
A 1" wide grosgrain ribbon made perfect pumpkin leaves.
I added Scrabble tiles with magnets on the back that spell out the word Fall and this project is a wrap! T
he magnet letters stick to the can or can be removed to use someplace else.
