Smashing Pumpkins

by Emily

Today is my favorite holiday, as I’ve already shared here, here and here and last night, I finally got around to carving my pumpkin. With the scary music turned up, I successfully created my ghost-inspired jack-o-lantern, even after I destroyed both of the carving kit’s safety knives (see picture below). Note to self for next year: avoid the 19-piece Pumpkin Master kit.

 Mink Pink Plaid Shirt

Have a happy Halloween and a fantastic weekend!

Very cute! We bent those knives too. They are really good for carving out intricate patterns but bend way too easily. Have a great Halloween!

Okay, you’re the cutest jack-o-lantern carver, ever! I love the gaping wide scary face on both of you!

Happy Halloween!

That’s very cute!! I also love pumpkin carving. This year I used a drywall cutting knife, and it worked so well! I highly recommend getting one for next year. I think they can be found at any hardware store.
