Pumpkin Carving Party 2025

 

My husband used my dad's carving tools to write "We're Having A Good Time" into the pumpkin.

 

Hello Friends, we enjoyed another fun pumpkin carving party with our family. My parents grew all the pumpkins. They have gotten very good at pumpkin growing. We had a fantastic selection of pumpkins to choose from to create our 2025 pumpkin masterpieces.

 

I used a little basket to make a hat for this pumpkin.

 

I found a little basket and white bird in a stash of my craft items. The pumpkin I picked out did not have a stem on top,so this idea worked perfect to add the straw hat and bird.. raven. I painted the white bird, black, to make it a raven.

 

 

The pumpkin party crew, and Ernie too.

 

My husband and I created this one together.

My husband and I created this chicken pumpkin. We used chicken wire for the inside to give it a true chicken coop look. 


More creative ideas, does this one look like an owl to you?
 

 

 And now for the pumpkins all aglow.  

 




Happy Halloween to you!

  2. This is such a fun tradition you have. The pumpkins are great. I love the Chicken Coop that you made. I learned something interesting about Pumpkins. The thicker the stalk the thicker the inside of the pumpkin is. So if you do not want to have to dig out a lot of pumpkin stuff get one that has a skinny stalk. I like the pumpkin seeds. Have a great Friday and wonderful weekend. Hugs. Kris
