If you are lost and hopeless and don't know how to carve a pumpkin read this.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • spoon
  • pumpkin
  • knife
  • a kit if your fancy
  • a bowl
  1. Step 1

    Take your pumpkin and deside what you want your design to be. Draw it lightly on the pumpkins skin with a pen or pencil. Don't rip the skin on the pumpkin there for it will look bad...

  2. Step 2

    Take the knife and make a hole in the top, so its big enough to stick your hand in and grab the guts of the pumpkin. Or if you prefer use a spoon to losen the insides then take them out with your hands. This is where the bowl takes affect. When you are done with the guts put them in the bowl.

  3. Step 3

    When you have your pumpkin clean inside this is when you start to carve the design on your pumpkin. If you already have the design drawn onto your pumpkin take the knife and start to carve!

Tips & Warnings
  • Make sure you have all the guts out of the pumpkin before you put a candle into.
  • Dont leave candle unattended. Safety is important.
  • Don't let children use knives unless you are watching them.
