All Hallow's Eve.

Post by Lithium_joe »

Right - after a few years prevaricating - I've decided to pay up and join a pumpkin carving website, started downloading stencils, invested in a carving set and various other goodies and am settling down (hopefully this weekend) to a long winter's carving.

This is they:

I invite other DA members to give them a glance, meanwhile Ill try to take some photos of my efforts and post them here for you all to see.

i love pumpkin carving!

i think i'm gonna have a go at carving some "munchkins" (tiny little baby pumpkins) which probably won't be easy but i really want to have a go :)

what are people doing for halloween? we're having a party at my boyfriends house which used to be a chapel! it's already quite creepy (still has the pews and altar plus it was used as a warehouse for a time so it has metal shutters on the doors and windows!) and we're going to have a dry ice machine to make it even creepier!

i'm not sure what to wear though....any suggestions? i don't want to go for anything typical like a witch or a vampire :)
