How to Make an Awesome Pumpkin
One of the most fun parts about halloween is looking and carving all the pumpkins. My favorites are the funny ones. The one I carved this year is one of those. Now I can show you how to make one too.
Materials
Stuff you need:
Pumpkin(duh)
Knife
Sharpie/Pencil
Newspaper

Faces and Guts
Draw your face onto the pumpkin with the sharpie or pencil. You can also print a stencil and stick it to the pumpkin. Then use a nail to poke many holes along the lines of your stencil.
Take your knife and stick it into the top and carve a circle with a small square in one end(see pic).
Pull Your knife out and pull the stem to pull off the top. Slice all guts off with knife.

Get Messy
Take a spoon or something and scrape out all of the guts inside the pumpkin and put it onto the newspaper.
The Fun Part
Take your knife and start carving the face. Try to cut out all the sharpie so it makes it look nicer.
Saftey
When working with knives, be carful! You don't want this to happen.
Finishing Touches...
Try to dump out any guts that didn't make it out. Also cut away jagged edges.
Have fun wih your brand new jack-o-lantern!
