I don’t carve pumpkins anymore, I paint! Because I have small children, this is just the easiest and most fun for them now. My daughter LOVED her Minnie Mouse Pumpkin last year. I have a big pumpkin primed and ready to paint on Halloween. I’ll reveal it soon!
These are some wonderful pumpkins the older girls at my daughter’s school painted. Each year they display their art work and I’m always super impressed with their creativity! Some are painted on plastic pumpkins, perfect for saving for next year.
Dr. Suess is so fun! This is a big gourd sitting on a plastic container, the hat is a paper plate.

Do you carve or paint pumpkins?
Those are so neat and very creative
I’m not sure I’m talented enough to do that myself though lol. Have an amazing day 
God Bless

Oh that turquoise alienesque pumpkins are WILD! I LOVE them! Really sad news, but we haven’t done anything with pumpkins this year….my husband likes to carve them, but I’d rather paint them.
[Reply]
We don’t pumpkin since we don’t have kiddos of our own and both dislike pumpkin but I love that Minnie Mouse pumpkin! I’d actually never thought of painting vs carving, it certainly would be a lot less mess!
