You should carve a pumpkin 1 or 2 days before Halloween. If you carve it too early, the pumpkin will start to rot/decay. Even better, carve it on the day of Halloween so you can light it before you go trick or treating. We usually carve at least two or three per season. We carve a couple earlier in October so we can always have one on the porch. We also love roasted pumpkin seeds! Then, we carve our last one the night before Halloween, so we can have a fresh one on the porch when trick-or-treaters come.
To clean a pumpkin you can wash it with a damp towel. Then you can take a carving knife. Carve out the pumpkin with a design of your liking. Make sure to take out the seeds. You can draw a design on the pumpkin first and use that as an outline when you carve the pumpkin.

To carve a cat design into a pumpkin for Halloween, start by drawing the cat design on the pumpkin with a marker. Then, carefully carve along the lines using a sharp knife or pumpkin carving tools. Be sure to take your time and work slowly to avoid any mistakes. Once you have finished carving, place a candle or LED light inside the pumpkin to illuminate the design. Display your cat pumpkin for a spooky Halloween decoration!
any face is acceptable
I think the best way to decorate a pumpkin for Halloween is to carve it. You can find different carving patterns from faces to scenes in books and magazines.
