If an elaborate pumpkin carving project is not on your “to-do” list. Try using metal cookie cutters to “carve out” your pumpkin or use a craft knife/carving knife.

I like using the battery-powered “candles” that glow in place of a lighted candle. I use hot glue to stick it inside. It’s a great addition to your beautiful design. This decor is perfect, especially for Halloween night!
