Halloween Pumpkin


Every year it's the same jack-o-lantern - triangle eyes, triangle nose, cruved mouth with some teeth cut in. *sigh* This year after seeing so much inspiration online I decided to attempt a different type of pumpkin - a haunted castle scene.

I tried this once before (tinkerbell, which failed miserably and Stitch which looked kinda funny all lit up), but this one seemed simple enough.
I broke out my pumpkin carving tools, which I lovingly keep in a black tin just for the holiday, and carved my pumpkin.

Once I was done, I painted the castle and bat to make it stand out even when it wasn't lit. Actually I was quite pleased with it - lit or not!
