Our carved pumpkins, have been pinched!!!!!! Update 1/11

[DisneyJo]

I posted these on Jackies thread but thought I'd better do my own, so here they are Ellie and I did Cinderella and Jess (without any help) did the castle. You can see where we had to fix it slightly with cocktail sticks though

Jo i love them .
Fantastic

Is this very messy to do I've never done one but i'm thinking for next year .

 

[BRobson]

Well done Jo,Ellie & Jess. They are fantastic

Happy Halloween!!

It's not too messy Jill but we did do it outside on a load of newspaper. The worst bit is emptying the pumpkins out! I think next year we may try a slightly more complicated design so after scraping the insides out it would be easier to do it at a table, oh also wetting the pumpkin a little allows you to almost stick the paper stencil to it

Thanks Jo & that was my next question about the pattern,
I thought it might have been a plastic stencil.
Another craft for me to try won't DH be please.

They're brilliant Jo - unfortunately, the stencils Jackie sent me didn't come through properly so we couldn't do any this year

They look great though

Jess has just come in from her Guide party and said where's the Cinderella pumpkin? Looks like someones pinched it Well they must have thought it was good!!!

 

[BRobson]

That is terrible Jo Must have been worth pinching

 

[tennisfan]

They look great Jo, probably why they were pinched

I cant believe somebody stole your pumpkin

They must of liked it.

 

[mandymouse]

What a shame someone nicked your pumpkin, they were obviously impressed with it

 

[saratogagirl]

thats such a shame - they must have been very impressed

 

[natalielongstaff]

It turns out that my 2 neighbours had their pumpkins pinched too, Ellie and I found them this morning on a grassy field around the corner all smashed up, why oh why do kids do things?
