Pumpkin stencils are easy to use if you have worked with them before. Just like any other tool, you would have to feel comfortable with using that tool. If you're not comfortable with using a stencil, then I suggest that you stick with the butter knife.

It depends what kind you buy. Paper ones are normally good for only one carving. Plastic ones on the other hand can be used over and over again so make sure to keep them for next year.

Carve Your Best Pumpkin Ever?

The history of a carved pumpkin also known as a jack-o-lantern was first associated with Halloween in 1866. Before becoming a symbol of Halloween tradition, carved pumpkins were a sign of the harvest season in general. Thanks to an article published in 1900, carving pumpkins and creating jack-o-lanterns continue to be the most anticipated activity for families during Halloween festivities. There's an endless number of designs available to create, so each is unique. Below are a few tips to help you and your family get started. The key to creating the perfect pumpkin is in selecting the right pumpkin. Take a minute and think about what you want to carve. The size and shape you purchase is based on the design and tools that you'll use. Tall, narrow pumpkins work well when using a knife to carve freestyle. If you are using an elaborate pattern then choose a nice large, round one. While shape and size are individual preferences be sure to choose a fresh, ripe pumpkin free of bruises and scratches. Be sure to give the pumpkin a good thump. A hallow sounds means scooping out the inside will be easier. Now that you have selected your pumpkin, cover you intended workspace with newspaper of plastic to avoid a mess. Start by cutting a hole on top to serve as a lid. It is important to cut using an inward angle for the lid to sit properly. Otherwise, the top will fall straight through inside the pumpkin. If you plan on using an electric light with a wire instead of a candle, cutting a hole in the bottom is recommended. Before beginning the actual carving, sketch a pattern on a piece of paper or search the internet for a design you like. Simply use scissors to cut the parts out and trace the pattern on the pumpkin as a guide for carving. A parring knife is best because it's small and allows for better control. However, if you chose a more complicated design then a dremel may be needed. Last, to preserve all your hard work, spread petroleum jelly all over the pumpkin and enjoy all season. .
