Make Your Own Halloween Pumpkin

What you’ll need:

Pumpkin, ripe and without bruises
Spoon
Carving knife (available at the hardware store)
CD marker
tea light

Instructions for a Halloween pumpkin:

First, cut off the lid of the pumpkin in the lower third and scrape out the pulp with the spoon. Only a shell of about 2 cm should remain. Use the CD marker to draw your personal pattern on the shell. It is best to start with simple patterns, such as circles or squares. Then use the carving knife to cut along the sketched lines, remove the cutout, and now just place the tea light in the pumpkin – your own unique pumpkin is ready.
