Halloween Pumpkin Lantern Carving

1. Choose a pumpkin with a good shape, do not have any rotten pumpkin, choose two outer skins and wash them clean

2. Use a toothpick to gently draw a circle on top, being careful not to use force, as long as your eyes can see it slightly. Then, use a V-shaped knife to cut a circle along the line to form a lace cover. If there is no V-shaped knife, you can directly use a kitchen knife to cut a circular cover. Do not open the cover too large or too small, just open it at the quarter of the top of the pumpkin

3. Use a ball digger or rice spoon to remove the pulp

4. After the pulp is removed, use a ball digger to dig out a layer of melon meat. Note that the scraped melon meat should not be wasted and thrown away. Make good use of it. Steamed pumpkin cakes or pumpkin cakes, cooked pumpkin Congee, etc. can become beautiful food

5. Use an oily marker to draw facial expressions on pumpkins, mainly eyes, nose, and mouth. Expressions can be rich and exaggerated, allowing for various expressions of joy, anger, and sadness to be fully expressed

6. Use a knife to carve out the drawn part, light a candle and place it inside to see how it looks. What a tragic, fearful expression!

7. Use the same method to make a cheerful expression pumpkin lantern

8. The effect of combining two expressions together

9. Don't be afraid, come on, smile
