How To Use These Pumpkin Stencils

Print out the PDF of patterns on heavy paper or card stock.
Cut out the pattern pieces with a pair of scissors or an X-Acto knife.
Tape the pattern together and to the pumpkin's surface, as indicated by the arrows on the pattern (you may wish to use clear tape so you can still see your lines).
Using a pencil and ruler, mark off where you want to carve out a hole for your light source (e.g., battery-powered tea light). Make sure your lines follow the outline.
Carefully cut along the lines with an X-Acto knife or similar tool that won't dull easily (such as a razor blade). Don't press too hard—you don't want to break through into another layer of pumpkin flesh!

If you dont actually want to carve them out, you can just use these templates as a guide for drawing the cats right onto the pumpkins with permanent markers.

What to Do with Your Cat Pumpkin Carvings

Here are some ideas for how you can use those adorable kitty pumpkins:

Use them as a Halloween decoration. Create jack-o-lantern type pumpkins. Put them in your front yard or on your front porch, and watch as people wander by and wonder if they're real haha
Use them as a decorative centerpiece at your Halloween party. You can even put candles inside of them! It's sure to be a conversation starter.
Put one in each corner of the room, then light them all at once so they glow like jack-o'-lanterns from afar! They'll look great from the street when trick-or-treaters pass by on Halloween night—you'll be sure to get more candy than usual this year!
