How to Carve a Pumpkin

How to carve a pumpkin? Carefully! According to the joke

No seriously, pumpkin carving is a lot of fun for both young and old alike, but can be hazardous to your health if not done correctly.

So, rather than try and emulate the pumpkin carving experts, I’m just going to ask them to show you the ropes, so to speak. Here is a selection of great instructions:

• Pumpkin Time’s a Comin..
• The Spookmaster’s Carving Instructions
• Jack O’ Lantern Carving 101
• The Pumpkin Wizard’s Carving Instructions
• Jack-O-Lantern’s Carving Techniques
• Pumpkin Carving 101

There are of course many more good carving instructions available all over the internet, but I’m sure these will do just nicely. However, if you want us to add another useful resource or, even better, have good instructions with pictures that we can post here (you must be the author), please email us.

Finally, be safe and have fun!
