🍂 Thanksgiving or Autumn Activity!

I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving surrounded by good food, friends, and family! 🦃 I know I definitely did — and yes, I fully stuffed my face and loved every second of it. 😄

To be honest, I always feel a little tired after the holidays. It takes me a few days to wind down from all the socializing, but once I recharged, I couldn’t wait to share a fun activity we did during Friendsgiving this year.

Instead of sticking to just the eating and drinking (though there was plenty of that too 😉), we tried something different — mini pumpkin painting! 🎨

It turned out to be such a hit with both the adults and the kids. Everyone got creative, laughed a ton, and left with their own cute little pumpkin masterpiece to take home. It was the perfect cozy fall activity. 🍁

Here’s everything I used to set it up — all from Amazon:

🎃 Mini Pumpkins (Better when they’re real from your local grocery store!)
🎨 Acrylic Paints (Comes with lots of color options for creative designs)
🖌️ Paintbrush Set (A mix of brush sizes that’s great for any art project)
🧻 Disposable Tablecloth Cover (saves you from a messy cleanup!)
🍷 Plastic Cups (for the water to clean off your paints and unused ones for any get-together)
🍽️ Paint Plates / Paper Plates (Perfect for holding paint… or snacks!)
✨Glitter! (Nothing like a little razzle dazzle to complete a look!)

The great thing about these supplies is that you can reuse them for other painting activities — from holiday crafts and DIY ornaments to simple art projects for kids. It’s an easy way to get creative without needing to buy everything again later!

It was super easy to set up and made the day feel extra festive. If you’re planning a Friendsgiving, family get-together, or just want a fun weekend craft, I highly recommend giving this one a try!
