Pumpking carving/design tips.

Step 4 Get a pumpkin

I suggest waiting until you've drawn up your design to go get a pumpkin. This way, you'll no what kinda of pumpkin you require. I like going for a good medium sized one with a flat face to work on. The flat side makes for a perfect place to display your design. It's hard to find a flat sided pumpkin at a grocery store (I find) so if you're in the vicinity of a "u-pick" pumpkin farm, I suggest going for that.
