TIPS:
1. Use your imagination!
2. If you are going to put a candle inside a pumpkin, it is a good idea to put a vent hole in the top above the candle so the pumpkin won't burn.
3. If you want to put the top back on the pumpkin, cut out the top at an angle so it won't fall back inside the pumpkin or other fruit.
4. For carving a zucchini, you can just cut off the top and bottom and take out the middle from the top or bottom of the zucchini using a long knife - This was a large zucchini - about 20 inches long. We ate the middle part of the zucchini for dinner!
5. You can carve other types of squash / fruit - I want to try a water melon some time!
Happy Halloween!
