2011 pumpkins!

As promised, here are this year’s Magazine Monday pumpkins.  Inspired by the pumpkins in so many of my October issues, Michael & I grabbed the knives and had some fun with these pumpkins.  To change it up a little, this year I went the traditional route and carved my own, instead of painting.  With Michael’s help, I think we came up with some pretty great jack-o-lanterns!

Michael & I are crazy about our Wayfarers, so I particularly love his ‘too cool’ sunglasses-wearing pumpkin.  But let’s be honest, the real show stealer is the Orvis pumpkin.  Too bad he liked the taste of it more than the look of it . . .

  • JEANNE MARIE SCARPATI thinks:

    I am particularly fascinated by the glasses…were they made from a separate squash and added?…how did you adhere them to the face? Love Orvis’ pumpkin, too…almost looks like a cookie cutter…if not, maybe you should fashion one and market them. Looks like you had fun…Happy Halloween, plus one!
