Recently I shared my fall front porch tour, and hinted at what I did to make my jack-o-lantern sparkle. It was pretty easy, so I didn’t take any before or during photos.
I originally used white spray glitter, but that didn’t work very well. So, I used some spray adhesive on the inside, tossed in some silver glitter, taped the holes closed and shook it up! I also sealed the inside and outside with some sealer so the glitter wouldn’t be loose and get everywhere.
Now whenever my (fake) candle flickers and glows, my jack has a little more glam than the rest on the street! I also love how the candle gives an orange-y glow and glitter to the inside!
