WESTALND, Mich.- Can you believe Halloween is just around the corner? It's hard to believe it's that time again but the leaves are changing and its almost time to carve your yearly pumpkin, so your Michigan Ford Dealer has gathered up some helpful Tips for Pumpkin Carving to help you out!
Tips for Pumpkin Carving:
-Draw or print it your design onto a piece of paper out to create a pattern, and then use a marker to trace the design onto the pumpkin.
-The first step is to clean the pumpkin out. Cut off the top, bottom, or try out the idea in the picture for more access. Avoid digging too deep into the bottom of the pumpkin when cleaning out the seeds because the pumpkin will become prone to rotting.
-When you're ready to start carving use a sharp knife and begin at the center of your design, working your way outward. Small details can be made with an X-Acto knife or the tip of a potato peeler.
- Mistakes on your jack-o-lantern can easily be mended by reattaching sections using a toothpicks to pin pieces back in place.
-When your carved pumpkin is complete, prolong its life by sealing in moisture by coating all cut surfaces with petroleum jelly or vegetable oil.
- Pumpkin Display Tips: A small battery-operated flameless candle is a safer option than traditional candles for lighting your pumpkin. Also, sprinkling cinnamon, nutmeg or cloves on the underside of the pumpkin lid will give it a festive scent!
