Pumpkin Carving Time Is Here

I love carving pumpkins. I found the love of pumpkin carving when those kits came out years ago. I remember how much Jimmy and I loved the. I bought a stencil cd and we made tons of them. That was back when they boys were very young. So over the years we have made them all. I love how you can get a new book each year with new designs. But since we have cut back spending dramatically since we went from a family of 5 with 2 incomes to a family of 6 with 1 income, I am not up for buying a book for $5 of pumpkin designs. Last year I found so many awesome designs online, I can’t understand why I didn’t think of it earlier.

 

Want to find some really great pumpkin carving stencils and patterns.

I have compiled my favorite links from last year and this year.

Country Living- This is great for people looking for something different than the usual carvings. These are very elegant.

DLTK These are all free and kid friendly.


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Zombie Pumpkin- This is my favorite site. We actually had a membership to it before, but if you scroll down there is a freebie section. There are so cool too.


 
 
 
 
 
 

Spook Master This is another great one. There are free ones and paid ones.

  7. These look wonderful. It is really interesting how one can carve all sorts of designs on the pumpkins and even use lights to give such an awesome effect. Fascinating! Have a good weekend.

    I really like the squiggly one from Country Living! Though I am sure we will have another pumpkin cat this year, as that is what my daughter always demands.
