Peter Rabbit Pumpkin

From pumpkin to porch

1. 1

   Prep and place

   Hollow a medium pumpkin, thin the wall to an inch, and position the bunny slightly off-center with the grass tufts at the base. Tall ears need headroom, so check the layout reaches comfortably up the face.

2. 2

   Trace the outline

   Transfer the standing bunny, raised paw, tall ears, and grass tufts. Mark which interior lines are cuts and which are skin-deep scores before starting.

3. 3

   Cut the body shape

   Open the main body and ear outline as clean bold cuts. Work the ears from tip toward head so the narrow tips are cut while the surrounding rind is still solid.

4. 4

   Cut the grass tufts

   Open the grass shapes at his feet. They anchor the composition and give light a base to spill from, so keep them generous.

5. 5

   Score the jacket and fur

   Add the jacket edge, buttons, and a few fur tufts as shallow skin-deep line work inside the glowing body. Scored lines show as dimmer strokes across the bright cutout, which is exactly the storybook look.

6. 6

   Light evenly

   A single LED puck centered in the cavity lights the large body shape evenly. Check the scored jacket lines read at distance and deepen them slightly if they wash out.
