Here are some fun sites to explore for Halloween. It must have been a good pumpkin growing season because everywhere I look there are huge stock piles of pumpkins.
I thought I would share the Free Pumpkin Carving Stencils for 2009 that we downloaded for free and some of the other ornate ones we found that we haven't tried yet. Happy pumpkin carving everyone! Stop by office in Grants Pass, Oregon and see our 270 pound pumpkin on display at Real Estate Cafe!
The first one we did was from Celebrating-halloween.com and they have a ton of different free pumpking carving stencils to download from the very simple classic patterns to much more ornate. We just did a classic jackolantern but there were tons to choose from.
Carvingpumpkins.com has some very ornate and pop culture focused stencils. We loved the Michael Jackson but have not attempted it yet since I think we'll need a bigger pumpkin.
Spookmaster.com shares a daily free pumpkin carving stencil. We did the bat which turned out beautifully.
The Better Homes & Gardens website also had a bunch of great free stencils. They are more classics but seem easy to use. I downloaded the ghost for next weekend.
Good luck with your pumpkins and please share any other sites you know about that have more free pumpkin carving stencils available.

Mary, I have also seen an abundance of pumpkins this year. Our local newspaper published Halloween stencils last week,
Thanks for the re-blog on this. I didn't get to see the original post. What cute stencils.

I am kind of looking forward to eating some pumpkin pie soon; I have some friends that live by you in La Farge.
Tom it is a small town, most likely I would know them, as I use to have an office there.
