Be honest. Would you rather do anything else related to Halloween than carve pumpkins? It's okay, really. You are so not alone.
There are so many fun quick ways to decorate with pumpkins that don't involve you having to carve them. So leave the carving tools in the drawer this year, and embrace the joys of decorating using stencils, chalkboard paint, and your imagination.

Got to love this witch made out of pumpkins! So simple to make, but how fun is this? All you need are 3 pumpkins, a black plastic bag for the witch's cape, and a witch's hat. Add a broom for fun, and make the eyes out of black and white construction paper.
