HOW TO TAKE A PLAIN PUMPKIN AND MAKE IT A SPECIAL PUMPKIN!!!<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

We all love pumpkins, but imagine just how much more we would love them if they were engraved – as in by Mother Nature.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I saw some engraved pumpkins growing in the garden of a French chateau on my bicycling trip there last month and fell in love with them. \u00a0Isn’t it cute!!! \u00a0The steps to achieve this engraved look are simple.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Select a plain pumpkin while it is still growing in your garden.<\/h3>\n

*****<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. \u00a0Using the end of a knife, carve a message on it.<\/h3>\n

*****<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. \u00a0Let it continue to grow in the garden.<\/h3>\n

*****<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. \u00a0Meanwhile, it will form a crust making the words you engraved in it easily readable.<\/h3>\n

*****<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And when it is ready, it will look like this. \u00a0To make it even more special, carve your message in French. \u00a0Oh, la, la!!!!!<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take care.<\/h3>\n
