It’s that time of year when ghouls and goblins are prowling the streets. Nothing beats going the pumpkin patch with a nice cup of hot apple cider and picking out the perfect pumpkin or gourd for this year’s masterpiece. Have you been influenced by a tv show or movie this year? Do you want to go a little crazy with an intricate design, or do you want to make it classic? Here are some creations we came up with to get those pumpkin carving hands going.
Keep It Basic:There’s nothing wrong with giving your pumpkin a traditional face of triangle eyes, nose, and teeth. You can always guarantee to give your pumpkin its personality.
Keep It Basic:Take the traditional face to the next level by elongating that toothy grin. Adding a few more teeth and taking on the top layer of the pumpkin can add some depth and bring it to the next level.
