Use some orange glitter, watered down Elmer's, and a paintbrush to outline and glitter the holes. It's a little more understated than glittering the entire thing, and it helps hod moisture in those edges a tad longer. (not much, but every little bit helps with real pumpkins)<br /><br />Whatever you choose do with it, you should keep us all posted.Jai Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10215284692148699852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-35459105865000105722012-10-04T08:27:36.855-06:002012-10-04T08:27:36.855-06:00Her hubs made a polka dot pumpkin!
