Let's face it, Jack O' Lanterns are everywhere. When you see a carved pumpkin on every porch, they are no longer original. No matter how you do it, Jack O' Lantern are all basically the same. So how can you think outside the box and make an original. A Jack O' Lantern ice sculpture is a good place to start.


In this instructable I'll show you how to easily make a Jack O' Lantern out of ice.

You could also try to make it with kool aid for color.

If you want to use it in a punch bowl or what ever you can flavor it with kool aid and then when it melts,if you used the same flavor of drink, it wont affect the flavor that much...

Then:
Use hot tap water to melt a hole a few inches deep in the top,
and put a small light inside!
