Muppet fever made its way into the pumpkin patch. Cute huh?
Must give credit where it is due -- this idea came from my wonderful friend Ann, who sent me a photo of a Muppet pumpkin from years ago (see the original featured above with her beautiful children, mom and friend, decked out for some serious Halloween festiveness!). I love this idea so much. If I get my act together and my carving knives unpacked, maybe I can make a whole Muppet gang next year? If anyone deserved to be made out of gourds, it would be Gonzo.
This particular pumpkin had super thick walls, so I had to keep the cuts simple. And since a smile was about all he could manage, I felt compelled to give him a couple of teeth. I don't know if Muppets usually have teeth, but a little hillbilly flair never hurt anyone.
*Someone* decided to get in the fun too so I made her a witch hat, but it came out looking more like a sequined pilgrim hat. Or a pimp hat. I'm not really sure, but Lola will be looking extra fierce for the Trick-or-Treaters tonight.
Happy Halloween!

ReplyDeleteLola sure has the P-I-M-P attitude! :)))
ReplyDeleteI don't think muppets have teeth, though. But who would blame you for becoming the first muppet dentist?! Poor things should be able to chew their cereal with something, don't ya think? :)))
Let me steal your word. Amazeballs.
ReplyDeleteWay too cute!
ReplyDeleteI want a hat like that :]
What a fantastic pumpkin arrangement! And Lola’s hat will work for so many holidays. Add a couple shamrocks, and it would be adorable for St. Patrick’s Day. Lucky cat!
