Zhu the Gap-Toothed Magical Pig 🐷🎃

I’ve always loved pigs! In Chinese culture, pigs symbolize good fortune, happiness, and prosperity. I also believe every part of a pig is valuable—nothing goes to waste! There’s also a funny personal connection: my last name is pronounced “Zhu,” just like the Chinese word for pig! So creating a pumpkin pig felt especially fitting. I carved this little piggy with a big snout, chubby cheeks, and a goofy little gap-toothed grin—my favorite detail! His imperfect little smile gives him so much personality. To complete the look, I added a whimsical 3D-printed witch hat for a touch of Halloween magic. Meet Zhu, my gap-toothed magical pig—proof that a little imperfection can make something even more adorable! 🐷✨

Save this design for carving night, then share a photo of your own jack-o'-lantern once it's glowing.
