Fall is the time to gather pumpkins and your har- vest bounty in preparation for the long winter ahead. This pocket project will assist you in getting
compliments, but don’t let your friends know how easy this was to create! You’ll have family and friends begging for you to paint one for them. So get busy and enjoy the harvest of creation!
PREPARATION
Please follow all manufacturers’ label instructions for proper product usage. Clean the surface with warm, soapy water then wipe dry. Use a tack cloth to remove dust particles. Apply a layer of Multi-Purpose Sealer to the surface and allow it to dry completely. Next, trace the pat- tern and transfer the main outlines onto the pocket.
