Hi everyone!!
Today, I am sharing a very special fall project, featuring Limor’s new Spray Set, Industrial Chic. I am in love with these colors!!!! Gorgeous!!!
Fall Pumpkin
I started with a foam pumpkin and a wood plaque for my base. The pumpkin was covered with metal foil tape, and then etched with various tools.
The leaves are where the magic is….and I have a tutorial for you down below. Here’s a few close ups of the variation and variegation that you can achieve with this simple technique!!
Love that shimmer!!!
And look at those colors!!! Yum yum!!!
I even added color to the berry sprays!!

The wonderful thing about this technique, is that it works best on the cheapest flowers and leaves that you can buy!!! And remember, only gesso/paint the backside of your flowers/leaves to get that mottled and realistic look!!

Wow this is amazing. Fantastic tutorial. I’m going to have to dig out some old flowers, blow off the dust and grab some lindys sprays.
Stunning project! Wonderful tutorial! Can’t wait to go out to the garage and find all my old, no longer loved, fall wreaths and remove their leaves!!
