I love creating my own version of MacKenzie Childs style. It's not that hard since it's just squares.
I started off with a brown paper mache pumpkin purchased at JoAnn's but they can be found at most craft stores.
Then I painted it white with acrylic paint.
I added the black squares. Dry brushed on some blue and yellow accents. And added polka dots on top with the green design and stem
