Zombie Pumpkins created by
Martha Stewart. I saw Martha doing something like this on one of the morning shows yesterday and found this great photo on her site. The directions look easy and are as follows:
Tools and Materials
Miniature saw
Small pumpkin (For a petrifying pale complexion, look for a white pumpkin)
Plastic eyeballs
Thumbtack or pin
- For the eyes, hold saw at an angle and cut 2 cone-shaped holes into the pumpkin. The diameter of the holes should be slightly smaller than the eyeballs' diameter.
- Print mouth template. Lay template on pumpkin, and poke tack through, all along outline, to transfer design. Cut along that outline with saw, and remove excess flesh.
- Wedge eyeballs into holes.
You can go to her site and download the template.
Be sure to browse the site while you're there.....Martha always has great fall and Halloween decorations.
