Garden Artist, did you see Bookluver's white and red ghosts? She explained how to make them.. In your case, you would use paste over the styrofoam head, let it dry, and there's no head holding up the ghost.

I didn't see them but I'll look for her posts. Maybe I can find them via the search function.

I saw some other cute little ghosts that were just small white plastic bags wrapped around a piece of wire, with black dots glued on for eyes and mouth.

Driving around the neighborhood to see what people create for Halloween is just so relaxing...and inspiring.

Just found them. Without clicking on her name and seeing the avatar more closely, I thought they were little children dressed for Valentine's Day!

Someone I knew years ago dressed her ghosts in red and called them the Ghosts of Soviet Past. This was around the time the Soviet Union collapsed.

It isn't a carving, but a chalk drawing I did last Halloween! I carved pumpkins too, but this photo was handy. Now, what do I draw this year.

stacy, wish I could take credit for the eagle pumpkin. I found it online, an eagle scout had done it. I will work on mine once I move. Certainly cannot carve a pumpkin now.

One upon a time, long long ago... when I was an assistant principal at a private school, we so enjoyed Halloween, besides the fact that the owners birthday was oct 31st... anywho, we had these fabulous pumpkin carving contest amongst staff, all staff..

My best year was when I carved a giant pumpkin, stuffed a glass fishbowl inside of it, added a beta... put everything inside a giant wooden box filled with sand and loads of seashells. Darnit but I won 3rd place. I think Bob Marley Punkin Head won 1st... yeah man!

Ok, did I carve that pumpkin the wrong way? (Mentioning the current avatar lol that will most likely be changed by the time you see this.)

Even funnier, Crowded. I guess whoever took that picture and put it on i- stock photo has already made the best pumpkin pie out of that! Did you see how clean that kitchen is?

So, really, every year its the same, what will we do if a trick or treater does come to the door?
Wouldn't it be great if that were the only problems we were facing?
But I have to say, things are so much better since coming here, and not a single person yelled at me for not wearing shoes when I bashed my toe, in the dark, on the leg of the nightstand. Really though, I have a dear friend who treats me like a sister, and her admonishments are always welcome, and she called the other day.

Not carved, but this pumpkin is a mystery. They have been showing up for years, nobody know who places them in such a precarious location. When zoomed in it is carved with just text "HI".

Thanks to everyone, one and all who participated on the pumpkin thread. It will be Sunday in another hour on the West Coast, clear skies, and Halloween is over. There were no tricks, and we shared one chocolate bar for dessert.
Have a peaceful, and restful Sunday, 24/7.
