I am finishing up a few last minute Thanksgiving and Fall decorations just in time for the big Tday!  We have family coming into town and I want to create a beautifully fall-ish home without spending a lot of time or money.  So today I am showing off my really cute and very simple Glitter Pears!

My inspiration for today's craft came from Pottery Barn Kids.  I was looking at their site online and found these really cute glitter pumpkins and thought they were just adorable!

But I already have a lot of pumpkin decor, so I decided to pick another fall fruit (pears) and create a similar look!

To make these you will need:

  • plastic pears (I found mine at the dollar store)
  • Glitter Blast in Orange
  • Clear Polyurethane or Polyacrylic
  • tape

You will simply tape off your stems and then use the Glitter Blast to spray paint the pears!  Be warned though, I have found Glitter Blast to be a little bit finicky, so follow all the directions carefully.

After the Glitter Blast is dry, spray on a clear coat to ensure that your glitter doesn't rub off over time.

These would be perfect as a Thanksgiving day centerpiece, used to hold place cards around the Tday table or even in a container on display in your home!

What decor are you putting on your table for Thanksgiving?
