Decorating Pumpkin With Glow Sticks

Fall is here, and with it comes the return of one of the most beloved autumn activities: decorating pumpkins. Whether you’re looking to make your entryway more festive or just want to give your jack-o’-lanterns a unique twist, glow sticks can help you take pumpkin decorating to the next level. With a handful of these bright, versatile accessories, you can create an eye-catching display that’ll dazzle trick-or-treaters and visitors alike.

Glow sticks have come a long way since their introduction in the 1970s. These small plastic tubes filled with luminescent liquid are now available in a wide variety of colors and sizes, giving you plenty of options for pumpkin decorating. Plus, they’re inexpensive and easy to use — no carving or electronics required. All you need are your glow sticks, some tape, and a bit of creativity to make your pumpkins shine.

To get started, gather a selection of glow sticks in various colors and sizes. Depending on the look you’re going for, you can opt for a single hue or mix and match different shades for a rainbow effect. Once you’ve chosen your colors, decide how you’d like to arrange them. You can line them up along the edge of the pumpkin’s top, or wrap them around the circumference for a spiral effect. You can also create a stripe pattern by running the sticks vertically up and down the pumpkin.

Once you’ve decided on your design, it’s time to secure the glow sticks in place. The easiest way to do this is by taping them directly to the pumpkin’s surface. You can also use craft wire to affix the sticks if you’re looking for a more permanent solution. For a truly unique look, try cutting a small hole in the pumpkin and inserting the glow sticks inside. This way, when you turn out the lights, the pumpkin will appear to be glowing from within.

Finally, it’s time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Put your glowing pumpkin in a spot where it can be easily seen, such as near the doorstep or on the porch. When the sun goes down, your pumpkin will come alive with its brilliant display of light. In just a few steps, you’ve created a stunningly unique autumn decoration that’s sure to make you the envy of your neighborhood.
