On the eve of Halloween, one of the main hobbies of young people and adults is carving a lantern from pumpkins - an invariable attribute of All Saints Day. Making an attractive and original Halloween pumpkin with your own hands is not at all difficult if you use your own creative ideas and useful tips from professional art designers at the same time.
Materials for creativity
Halloween pumpkin decoration is an interesting and exciting experience for the whole family. To make a flashlight yourself, you will need:
- ripe pumpkin;
- drawing template;
- black marker;
- kitchen knife and spoon;
- deep bowl;
- electric drill or screwdriver.
A Halloween pumpkin template can be found on the Internet and printed on an A4 sheet. If you can draw well, you can create your own original drawing, and then transfer a copy of it to the surface of the pumpkin.
Practical recommendations
The most unusual and beautiful Halloween pumpkins are obtained from the smallest copies. Take a small sized pumpkin, draw an arbitrary circle around the tail of the ponytail and carefully cut the "hat". At the same time, it is recommended to hold the knife in hands not vertically, but slightly at an angle. Use a spoon to scrub pumpkin pulp to form a void. Take an electric drill or an ordinary curly screwdriver and make small holes in the pumpkin and the lid. Halloween pumpkin lantern with holes is considered simple in execution. If you want to make a truly original image, you can give the next pumpkin a more meaningful expression of “face”.
Download from the Internet or draw any template for a festive pumpkin. Using a marker, transfer the pattern to the front of the pumpkin and cut out the eyes and mouth with a knife. Then from the resulting "waste" make sharp teeth for the future lamp, prick them on a toothpick and insert them into the lower and upper jaw. Scary Halloween pumpkins are very popular, so to give the flashlight an aggressive "character", you need to try and make the image perfect in every way.
Adhering to simple recommendations, you can make the most ordinary pumpkin a real work of home creativity, which will bring a festive mood and a cheerful atmosphere to the house.
