Carving My Very First Pumpkin for Halloween

I can’t believe it. I’ve been obsessed with the season of Halloween since I was a child and I have never once ever, carved a pumpkin.

So, I wanted to share my experience through pictures, of me carving out my first Jack-o-Lantern from a pumpkin for Halloween. What a messy and amazing experience. I’ll admit, I am totally addicted now to this Halloween tradition and will most definitely be making part of my Halloween tradition each and every year.

Of course, my carving was nothing extraordinary and they were a challenge without the right pumpkin carving tools. We used steak knives. It did the job, but was rather awkward when it came to carving smooth curved lines into the faces of the pumpkins.

Carving a pumpkin with friends and family is a great way to get inspired for Halloween. I was super eager to start the celebrations after carving myself a spooky fellow of a Jack-o-Lantern. Anyways, there isn’t much more to say on pumpkin carving, so here are some pics from my fun-filled event.
