Mummy Face Pumpkin Stencil
A mummy face fills this pumpkin stencil, built from horizontal overlapping bandage strips that cross the forehead, bridge over hollow oval eye sockets, and wrap beneath a grimacing mouth with small exposed teeth. The bandage layers are the solid orange pumpkin wall while the gaps between them are pierced through, so candlelight reads as stripes of light across a dark face. Cut the eye socket ovals first, then work upward through the bandage gaps from the chin to the crown, keeping each horizontal bridge intact until the cut on either side of it is complete.
Pharaoh Death Mask Pumpkin Stencil
An Egyptian pharaoh death mask stares straight out of this expert pumpkin stencil, showing the broad striped nemes headdress with its pleated side panels and forehead uraeus cobra, plus a detailed face with almond-shaped eyes, straight brows, a defined nose, and a zigzag collar at the neck. The face details are held in thin skin bridges while the headdress stripes and surrounding areas are pierced through. Carve the delicate uraeus cobra at the top first since it is the most isolated element and easiest to cut without torque on neighboring sections.
Bandaged Mummy Pumpkin Stencil
A stout, squat mummy character dominates this expert pumpkin stencil, its entire body layered in spiraling bandage wraps that read as a dense web of curved negative-space cuts. Two round eyes peek out as small circles near the top, and wild tattered bandage ends fly from both arms and along the ground line. The arms, made up of irregular claw-like bandage shreds, are the most fragile sections; cut them after the body core is fully carved so the pumpkin stays stable throughout.
Cartoon Mummy Pumpkin Stencil
A squat cartoon mummy stands front-facing in this pumpkin stencil, its head wrapped in bandage strips that curl into decorative scrolls above, while a broad grinning skull mouth with large square teeth is cut through below. The wrapped body, arms, and stubby legs are defined by horizontal bandage-strip negative spaces that blaze with light when carved. Cut the curved scroll shapes at the top of the head before tackling the body strips, as the scrolls are the most delicate elements here.
Chibi Mummy Pumpkin Stencil
A chibi-style mummy pumpkin stencil showing a squat, round-headed figure wrapped head-to-toe in curved bandage strips, with two large oval eyes cut through the face and a small triangular nose below. The character stands in a wide-legged stance with stubby arms held out to the sides. Lit from inside, the big eye circles and the gaps between bandage strips all glow independently, so start by cutting the largest background sections on the torso before moving to the small curved wrapping strips, keeping at least two bandage bridges intact on each limb to prevent them from falling free.
