Pumpkin Carving Tips

Aside from the normal Pumpkin Carving Safety Tips (such as these on Bella Online) that you MUST read before preparing to carve a pumpkin...

You should have a pumpkin carving design in mind before setting the knife to surface.

The great news here is that you can pretty much use any natural or spooky Image in Line Art Format (outlines only). But do make sure that before you select your image, that it's appropriate for those who will be doing the carving.

There are hundreds out there for halloween.

Just remember: The last thing you want to do is pick a complex jackolantern template that can only be carved out by an art major (in woodworking or sculpting) LOL. That's no fun for anyone.

So keep Halloween Safe, Age Appropriate and Fun this year!

Happy Carving!
