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! Check them all out by clicking on the orange links above.
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.

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! The magnet letters stick to the can or can be removed to use someplace else.
These junky punkys are headed straight to the Homeroad Cupboard at Backstreet Antiques in Huntington, NY
While I have the paint out I will get started on the next pumpkin project...
