Everyone will love your tipsy pumpkin planter and it’s easy when you know how. This is perfect for your Halloween celebrations.
When I made one of these, I painted the pumpkins before I put them through the spike in the ground. I just wanted a richer look than the regular plastic pumpkins and it turned out so fantastic!
If you guessed cheap, plastic trick-or-treating pails then you are correct! These came from Walmart and they were only $1 each.
While I was painting the pumpkin pails I picked up, I got the idea to make a topsy turvy planter by painting the pails 3 different colors. I had actually seen the topsy turvy planters on Pinterest, so I guess that was still in the back of my mind.
One of them I spray painted green and then added metallic copper paint and some gold leaf Rub n’ Buff. Another one I painted in a similar way as I did the original one, and the third one I painted a sunshine yellow color with some gold metallic paint on top with just a little gold leaf Rub n’ Buff added.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
