Instructions

  1. Glue the two google eyes to the pumpkin where you would normally carve eyes.
  2. Cut 3-yards of cheesecloth into random sized stripes. In a large bowl, saturate the strips in the Mod Podge.
  3. Begin wrapping the strips around the pumpkin and in a random pattern till the entire pumpkin is covered. Be sure to keep the cheesecloth off the eyes. Tuck in any ends as needed.
  4. Place on a plastic drop-cloth. Allow the pumpkin to dry for at least 24 hours. Depending on how thick the cheesecloth is it might need a little longer.
  5. Apply two coats of Super Glow, allowing each coat to dry between applications. 

Tip: Make an antique mummy pumpkin by dry brushing silver or grey paint over the pumpkin.
