Step 2Carve and Decorate the Pumpkin
I free formed the design, but was trying to keep true to the steampunk spirit. I had my Hobart welding goggles there for inspiration. The brass brads were very handy to attach washers and parts to the pumpkin.
First I made a big cut out of the top. I wanted a wedge for the front that was about all that I had planned. I made the back part flat so I could attach a door hinge to the top and bottom parts of the pumpkin.
Next I recreated my goggles using the door knob covers and straps from the purse.
Then added an improvised aviator cap using the flap of the purse.
The ears of "Steamy Wonder" was made from the candle stick holders.
Last, I tore apart the metal lampshade using the Dremel and created the mouth.
