Happy Halloween






On our holiday in the US, we noticed everyone goes crazy for Halloween over there,much more so than in the UK, with pumpkin patches in every town and houses elaborately decorated, it reminded me of a recent edition of Country Living in which there was an article showing off some really pretty pumpkin and gourd carvings (I guess the book above is where the images/inspiration came from for the article) - I have hunted high and low to find the magazine but no joy - so I have searched the net for some alternatives to the traditional carved face design to inspire you for carving your pumpkin tonight. 

(The very top image is from fakeplastictrees which looks pretty special, not sure I could manage this one.  The middle two pumpkin images are from Shakin Style  and the bottom image is from Daily Olive) these are nice simple and pretty alternative to putting a scary face in your window)
