How to Make a Pumpkin Beer (Beverage) Cooler


My friend was having a pumpkin carving party and I though a pumpkin beer cooler would be awesome. This is take two since during the first one I didn't take photos.
This is also my first Instructable that I also threw together at the last minute.
I didn't wear safety equipment and paid the price with being covered in dust.
