Triangle eyes and jagged grins are good fun, but make your pumpkin a jaw-dropper with our Hazy Little Thing stencil. Hard to imagine a better jack-o’-lantern on the block.
Watch the video, scroll down for instructions, and one-up the porch next door.
Download the Hazy Little Thing jack-o’-lantern stencil, print on standard 8.5” x 11” paper.
Step 2
With scissors, make 2-inch cuts from the edge of the paper toward the center of the Hazy Little Thing logo, spacing the cuts every 1.5 inches. (Start 1.5 inches from one corner; do not cut at any corner.)
Step 3
Tape the paper onto the pumpkin.
Step 4
Using a thumb tack, trace the edges of the black sections of the logo with small holes.
Step 5
Remove the paper (do not throw away!) and using a marker, trace the lines made by the thumb tack. To help reveal the small holes, sprinkle flour or baby powder onto the pumpkin and wipe away.
Step 6
Using the marker lines as a guide, carve out the parts of the logo from the stencil that are in black. Do not carve too deep. (We recommend a specialty pumpkin carving tool or dremel, but an exacto knife works too).
Step 7
Cut around the stem and remove. Scoop out the seeds and flesh. (Bake the seeds with spices for a nice snack.)
Step 8
Insert light source, re-insert the removed stem, and enjoy your Hazy Little Thing jack-o’-lantern!
