Ah, the pumpkin. An iconic symbol of fall and the undeniable fruit mascot of Halloween. In the Pumpkin Challenge, we’d like to see what the pumpkin inspires you to make. Something tasty to eat? A spooky Halloween decoration? Or maybe something a little more offbeat?
Share everything pumpkin! We will be evaluating entries based on originality to Instructables, quality of presentation, and reproducibility.
Prizes for this challenge include an iPad Mini 2, pumpkin carving kit, and more.
