One of my favorite things about Halloween is the “Boo-ing” tradition. Making plates of goodies and dropping them on friend’s or neighbor’s porches is so fun for the whole family. Being in a new house this year, I thought it would be fun to do some for the mom’s in the neighborhood. I picked a few random houses and dropped a little Happy Halloween or Happy Fall treat on their doorstep. I used FloraCraft’s Make It: Fun seasonal foam pumpkin, a few cookies inside, some chocolates, and my favorite wax melt scent.

Supplies:

Fab Lab™ Styrofoam Diorama Pumpkin (can be found at JoAnn)
Spray Paint
Ribbon
Crinkled Paper Filler
Wax Melts
Homemade Cookies
Other Halloween/Fall goodies

To prep the pumpkins I used for the gift drop, I used some spray paint. I used two separate “techniques” to paint them. On the gold one, I painted up close and more on the heavy side. The spray paint will do a “melting” on the foam giving it a bunch of texture! The white pumpkin I sprayed from a distance with even and light strokes, and did about 2-3 coats. This gave it a more smooth finish without melting the foam.

I let the paint dry overnight before filling the pumpkins.

On the white one, I decided to add a little color with fun ribbons tied to the top. I used the same ribbons on the wax melts as well! I filled the pumpkin with crinkled paper filler, and then layered some chocolate treats, homemade cookies in a paper tray and the wax melts as well.
