A craft project - for some-one.

Post by Mo »

I'll supply the idea, someone else can do the carving.
We drove past a roadside sign that said
PUMP
kins

So how about a whole family of lanterns. Papa Pump and all his kin. Mama Marrow, baby Gordon Gourd, uncle and granny Pump.

Sorry, no good at carving here either, but good idea.

Chloe my 4 yr old Grandaughter and I made one of those on Monday Mallard. Unfortunately she was scooping out the middle and putting it in the washing up bowl in the sink before I could stop her. {cry} She took it home with her too, so not sure if its gone mouldy or not yet.
