Pumpkin Carving on Craft Pumpkins
NOTE: This is part two of a two part series, read about carving on real pumpkins here. Although I love the look and feel of real pumpkins around my house in the fall, I also love the fact that craft pumpkins will last longer than one season! This is especially true if I am taking the time to carve a pumpkin with a really intricate design. My 10 year old daughter, Korey, loved the idea of keeping her carved pumpkin for several seasons so she carved a Funkins Craft pumpkin. We used Sulky Stick ‘n Carve and chose one of the free designs from Zombie Pumpkins that you get when you buy the…

Easy Pumpkin Carving!
This past weekend, we went with some friends to North Georgia to Burt’s Pumpkin Patch. It’s a fun place with lots and lots of pumpkins. Today, the girls wanted to carve our pumpkin.

Better Homes and Gardens: this is a great site, full…

This Halloween, Sulky Stick ‘n Carve Will Save The Day
I went into a craft store the other day and noticed that the Halloween decorations and items are already out. We love Halloween at our house! The decorations, the candy, the costumes and we have a family tradition to carve a pumpkin together every year. Up until this year, I have been on a campaign to get rid of this tradition. I have tried for years to skip it because, quite frankly, it is so much work!
