Also, remember to follow a category, these will help you getting started too.

There is also a new site of past carvings just posted at http://www.NotYourAverageJack.com check it out!

We suggest carving over the weekend so your pumpkin is “fresh cut” looking for the judging. If you have done it sooner or want to make one carved over the weekend even sharper looking you can try a cool trick we have learned – just put it in a clean trash can of water to soak over night with a rock or brick on top to keep it submerged. You can keep it in all day or overnight, all the exposed fleshy parts of your pumpkin will soak up the water and your carving will look as good as new! This can be repeated a few times to keep it nice for Halloween too.

Be safe and have fun, see you Monday!

The mystery is over… the mystery category is “Toss Your Seeds”.

Here is a hint in case you don’t get it: pumpkins don’t have cookies.

See you on the 27th!

The contest is coming up Monday October 27th at 5:00. See poster below for all the details… don’t forget to check the new categories!
