Chewy Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 This was the first year we had the opportunity to carve a pumpkin so we tried something different than triangle eyes like I'd grown up with. Eli is 2yo now so he enjoyed it, but was little help. (he's not good with a knife) I carved one and my wife Mr Potato'd one. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kornercarver Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Here are a couple lf my pumpkins............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) Those look awesome! That's cool Eli enjoyed the experience. Here's mine I did this year for our office. No pumpkins at the house are carved yet since they postponed Halloween until November 7th due to the storm damage here.

Chewy Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 Nice ones guys! This was my first time doing one of these and it was a blast! We'll have a 10 month old next year to join in the fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenneth Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I am going to stick with potato head for the future. I am not graceful enough to get the little cuts and make nice designs haha. Those are super cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
