https://www.zombiepumpkins.com/images/forum/2022/2022-title-guess-contest-forum.png Time has a way of changing things, and after 20 years, a whole new era for Zombie Pumpkins is almost upon us. But before the website transforms and the product line expands, let’s see if you can guess this year’s ti...

Portercat, that makes too much sense. Grinding the back edge so you don’t have to sharpen a new cutting edge. Now I feel dumb for not thinking of that myself!

We talked about this on Facebook, but for the sake of public education... The tool I use to cut most foam pumpkins is the Walnut Hollow Creative Versa Tool (available in craft stores and on Amazon). It's technically a wood burning tool, but it has interchangeable tips. I'm using the tip that's like ...

One of the reasons I wanted to try to make a real scarecrow was because I wanted to place it in my back yard, in my pumpkin garden. But sadly, we had a very hot summer with almost no rain. My pumpkin patch got fried in the sun, and the drought resulted in no pumpkins. So I didn't bother making a sca...

Happy National Frankenstein Day, celebrating the birthday of author Mary Shelley, born August 30, 1797. Her novel "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus" was published in 1818, and led to iconic film adaptations like "Frankenstein" in 1931 and "Bride of Frankenstein" in 1935. Tonight would be a go...

Now is the perfect time to start posting your pattern wish lists. I can tell you, are thoughts in alignment on some of these topics. Keep the wish lists coming.

Muppets!! So many to choose from... Sam the Eagle (my personal favourite), July- Independence Day- Uncle Sam, Bald Eagle Can I amalgamate this choice into Sam the bald eagle please? :wink: http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120206211310/muppet/images/1/16/SamEagle.jpg We need more Muppets :D S...

Surely has all the makings of a pattern. I can see it already!

Good luck with the group! Hope it helps ya meet more pumpkin fans in your region, and maybe trade advice and resources specific to Scotland. Groups that bond over a shared interest can become lifelong friends. We know it... it's happened here!

Mark, I'm reviewing your scarecrow video because I'm contemplating building a new one for myself this year. The pool noodle hands are surely a good tip. That's a method I hadn't considered. If I try this myself, I'll share progress photos. Loved the video of your Halloween garden too! I recognize a ...

Sorry you were getting kicked out. That's odd. Thanks for persevering. I love seeing this yard display for half-o-ween. Wish I had thought to do this in my yard. The neighbors would probably say, "This guy is crazy" but then again, I think they know that by now. :lol: Did you get any comments or rea...

You have creative ideas, and seem to have the accessories figured out. Absolutely, go for it! And if you get any good pics and are willing to share, we'd love to see.

Good call. Metaluna Mutant is surely on the "someday" list.

We're halfway to Halloween! I'm already designing patterns, because idle hands are the devil's workshop. And speak of the devil, here he is. A new Vintage Devil Mask, hot off the presses. 🔥 https://www.zombiepumpkins.com/images/news/zp-vintagedevil-pumpkin-promo-800.jpg 🖨️ Print Vintage Devil Mask p...

Great costume idea. Who doesn't love dinosaurs? That's why the Jurassic franchise is still going after 30 years. I don't have any personal experience with inflatable costumes, but I know they come with a small fan blower that you have to run on battery to keep them inflated. Just in case you weren't...
