He has two more playdates scheduled where they will paint pumpkins so he may be over it by the time Halloween comes along! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decorate-your-pumpkins#post-1884253 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 11:44:51 +0000 Mamaof2 1884253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We paint the mini pumpkins every year and use those as decorations (did that last weekend)</p> <p>Then we do it old school like you - make a face with a sharpie and cut out for the big pumpkins (and bake the seeds - yum!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-decorate-your-pumpkins#post-1884241 Wed, 01 Oct 2014 11:40:33 +0000 mrbee 1884241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One year we used some printout or something to carve something really fancy into the pumpkin. Usually though, we just draw a face onto the pumpkin with black marker and then cut it out. It's old school, but I love it.</p> <p>I'm intrigued by the whole pumpkin painting trend, just because our pumpkins usually get pretty gross and that's not fun. But carving pumpkins is so fun with kids! Maybe we'll paint for a few more years, then switch over to carving when they're older.</p> <p>How do you decorate your pumpkins?</p> <p>ps Sorry for all the Halloween posts! It's October and I've got Halloween on my mind... </p>
