Don't let your creativity go to waste this Halloween! With just a medium-sized pumpkin and a little imagination, you can create some truly terrifying designs. And the best part? It won't break the bank. Aldi has pumpkins for just 95p!
A Cut Above the Rest
If you want to be a cut above the rest, Asda has a pumpkin-carving kit for a wickedly cheap £3. But don't worry if you don't have one – a serrated kitchen knife, hammer, and nail will do the trick.
Shape-Shifting Pumpkins
Make your pumpkin a shape-shifter by scooping out the flesh and using metal cookie cutters from your kitchen to create fun shapes and patterns. Just press them into the pumpkin's exterior and tap lightly with a hammer.
Spooky Stencils
For a professional-looking design, print off up to 30 stencils for free at familybreakfinder.co.uk/activities. Choose from witches, cats, wolves, and bats, cut out the grey sections, and then trace the design onto your pumpkin using a marker pen.
Bewitching Dotted Design
If you're not a fan of carving, try using a hammer and nail to tap tiny holes into your pumpkin, creating a unique dotted design. When you add a light inside, it will create an amazing lantern effect.
Family Fun
Get the little ones involved by heading to Poundland for Halloween-themed stickers and paints to decorate their own pumpkins. Another idea is to wrap your pumpkin in bandages and draw on eyes, nose, and mouth to create a mummy pumpkin.
So, get ready for a scarily good Halloween celebration with these creative pumpkin-carving ideas. And remember, all prices are correct at the time of publication and deals are subject to availability.
