10 Days of Halloween

Pumpkins, gourds, roots of the earth!

Are you carving a pumpkin this year?

I’m not sure what I’m going to do, but hubby and I always carve on Halloween day, then set then aglow on the porch at night.

I’ve got these beauties waiting.

The greenish one in the front is a special squash that my mom gave me, from her friend’s farm! It’s apparently delicious roasted. Can’t wait to find out.

What should I carve? Here’s some past creations.

What design are you carving?

10 Days of Halloween – Wrap Up

It’s sad to say goodbye to my beloved Halloween for another year. But, as I look back on the last week, I realize I’ve had enough fun…for now.

Our pumpkin carving was a success. The new carving toolset is awesome! I can’t wait to stretch my limits next year.

Bake time was a blast, and it was delicious. Who doesn’t love feasting on the remnants in the mixing bowl?

I spent the whole day listening to Halloween songs, including my all time favorite.

And of course, I had some devlish fun on my makeup.

To top off this amazing week with an 80s metal cherry, Halloween Howler with Broken Toyz was a blast.

If you love Halloween as much as I do, stay here, and follow along on Facebook or Instagram, for plenty more spine prickling things….

10 Days of Halloween – Pumpkin Carving

Who doesn’t love pumpkin carving?

We make it a family activity. These were our creations from last year. My hubby did the pumpkin King for me.

Here are my top three ideas for this year. I’ll do some more searching and then pick my favorite.

Have you started looking for ideas yet?

The tree and the wolf are tied for my top pick

You can keep it simple with a pencil and carving knife. This year we got this super affordable, beginner carving kit on Amazon.
