14 Pumpkin Decorating Ideas

Every October, we carve pumpkins with my husband’s brother and our sister-in-law.

Every October, I get called out for carving a traditional Jack-O-Lantern. You have to have the classic, right? Everyone else opts for a Dr. Seuss character, scary creature, or something clever and funny.

This October, I might just bring paint and glitter to our annual pumpkin carving get-together. No more traditional Jack-O-Lantern!

I’m loving these no-carve pumpkin decorating ideas.
