Introduction: Pumpkin Carving

About: I enjoy this site and I love sharing my ideas

How to do amazing carvings on to your pumkin without being an artist. this is another drawing that I had to label because it was difficult to tell what it was :(

Step 1: Stencil

either print or draw out a basic/complicated picture just using black (thats a minion a cat and a face ^-^ )

Step 2: Preparing

cut a circle in the top of your pumpkin and what I call "gut it" (empty the pumpkin). Then either stick the stencil down or coppy it onto your pumpkin using pencil.
you can even keep the insides to make a pie later.
(and thats my drawing of emptying a pumpking into a bag)

Step 3: Carving

using a knife carve out only the black, or the outline

Step 4: Finish

once you take the template off get a thinner tool to sharpen up the edges, and once you practiced quite alot you can do amzing pieces of art work thats sure to attract tric or treaters.

Step 5: Finally

put a candle in your pumpkin to last the night, and instead of throwing away the insides why not giv the pumpkin the effect of throwing up :D
