Materials Needed


Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Base Coat with Pink

Use a baby wipe to apply soft pink paint across both 6” boards. Make sure to cover the edges for a finished look. Speed up drying with a blow dryer if needed.

2. Stencil the Pumpkin Carving

On the first board, tape down the pumpkin carving design from the October Nights Mini Stencil Pack. Using a stencil brush, fill it in with coral paint for a soft, non-spooky look.

Helpful Tips

  • Use baby wipes or paper towels for a soft, streak-free base coat.
  • Always tape down your stencil to prevent shifting while painting.
  • Less paint is more! Dab off excess before stenciling to avoid bleeding.
  • Try making your boards reversible β€” Halloween on one side and Christmas on the other!
