Halloween | Carving the Pumpkins

It's nearly Halloween so Me and Leah finally decided to carve our pumpkins! I always have good memories of carving out the pumpkin and this was no different. I love the whole process. There are so many ideas on Google to choose from! I'd really love to attempt one of the really artisit ones like the witches and other different ideas. However, this year we stuck to a traditional spooky face but I think they look quite cute!

Who knew carving pumpkins was so exhausting though? At least at the end of it we have a cute little pumpkins lighting up the whole room.

Do you carve a pumpkin at Halloween?

  21. I've never carved a pumpkin before because I would imagine they are quite tough to do well. I'm sure I will in a few years time when Ellie is old enough though! These are so cool, great job! x
