Instructions
-
Print the pumpkin stencils that you wish to carve.
-
Get a clean pumpkin, set it on a covered table and cut around the top so that you create a removable "lid" with the stem attached.
-
Scoop out the pumpkin guts and set aside.
-
Take the template of your choice and tape it to the surface of your hollowed-out pumpkin.
-
Use a sharp tool along the template lines to help mark where you wish to cut your pumpkin design. (Please keep in mind that black areas are entirely cut out of the pumpkin rind, while gray areas are where the flesh is scraped away but not entirely cut through!)
-
Follow the stencil and cut marks on your pumpkin in order to carve your favorite characters into your pumpkins!
