Pro Tips for Carving With This Stencil
Use a thin, serrated pumpkin carving knife to handle those detailed zombie fingers. Start with the smallest inner pieces first, then work outward—this prevents breaking the more fragile sections. And if you’re carving in low light (for extra ambiance, of course), don’t forget your headlamp!
Want your design to really pop? Cut shallowly in some spots to create a layered glowing effect—creepy and artistic! For beginners, try this pumpkin carving stencil easy-style by enlarging the design slightly so the lines are thicker and easier to cut.
