Beginner or pro, there's something on this page for you.

Intermediate

Cross With Ten Rays

A bold cross anchors the center of the design while ten tapered rays burst outward around it like beams of light. The cross and every ray are pierced through, leaving dark shell between them that frames the radiating pattern. Cut the large cross first to relieve pressure on the wall, then work each ray from its wide outer end toward the narrow tip so the points finish clean.

Angular Seven-Tooth Grin

A sharp-edged jack-o'-lantern face with slanted triangle eyes, an angular nose, and a wide jagged mouth broken into seven pointed teeth. Every shape is cut straight through the pumpkin wall, making a bright, high-contrast face that reads perfectly from the porch steps. It is a medium pattern because of the many small tooth points, so saw into each corner from both directions instead of twisting the blade to keep the tips sharp.

Brows and Six Cheek Dots

A classic jack-o'-lantern face with slanted triangle eyes topped by separate angled brow cuts, a diamond nose, and a wide grin broken by six blocky teeth, plus three small round holes dotting each cheek. Every element is cut fully through so the whole face blazes at night. A solid medium project; drill or punch the cheek dots first while the wall is strongest, then saw the eyes, brows, and mouth.

Arched Eyes and Seven Slots

This cheerful face pairs tall arched eyes, each with a round pupil left attached at the top, with a triangle nose and a huge grin broken by seven tooth slots. The eyes, nose, and mouth are pierced while the pupils and tooth bars remain as connected shell. The attached pupils are the trickiest part, so cut around each one carefully and leave a generous bridge so they stay anchored.

Sleeping Moon, Stars & Cloud

A sleepy crescent moon with a gentle closed-eye face drifts above a puffy cloud, with two twinkling stars floating at its side. Most of the design is shaded by shaving the skin so the moon and cloud glow softly, while the stars can be etched to match. Keep your shave shallow on the facial features, going just deep enough on the eyelid and lips that they read as darker lines.

Notched Brows and Jagged Grin

A characterful jack-o'-lantern with heavy notched brows sitting over sly almond eyes, and a huge open mouth whose top edge is a row of jagged zigzag teeth above a broad curling lower lip. Eyes, brow slits, and the mouth are all pierced through for a bright, expressive glow. At medium difficulty, the key move is cutting each zigzag tooth point cleanly; slice into every corner from both directions instead of turning the blade.

Maine State Shape

Maine's craggy outline fills the pumpkin as a single glowing cutout, from the pointed northern crown down to its famously jagged coastline. The entire state interior is removed while the rind around it stays solid, so the border reads crisply once lit. The ragged coastal edge is what makes this a medium carve: trace it slowly with a fine saw and do not worry about tiny inlets, since the overall shape sells the design from a few feet away.

Arched Brows and Single Tooth

A wholesome grinning face with arched eyebrows, round eyes that keep their pupils as uncut dots, a small triangle nose, and a big open smile showing two square teeth. The brows, eye rings, nose, and mouth are pierced through while the pupils and teeth remain as attached pumpkin. Cut the eyes slowly so each floating pupil keeps a solid connecting bridge to the shell.

Tennessee State Shape

Tennessee's long parallelogram runs nearly the full width of the pumpkin, flat across the top with the jagged mountain border stepping down the eastern end. The entire state is removed as one wide glowing band. Since the opening is long and shallow, cut the straight top and bottom edges first, then work the stepped eastern corner in small bites to keep every notch sharp.

Intermediate

New Hampshire State Shape

The unmistakable tall, tapering outline of New Hampshire, cut fully through as one glowing state silhouette. Everything inside the border comes out, leaving the surrounding rind as the dark frame that defines the shape. This medium carve is one large opening, so work in short, connected saw strokes around the jagged northern border and remove the piece in two or three sections instead of forcing out one big slab, which can tear the notched edges.

Intermediate

Nebraska State Shape

The unmistakable outline of Nebraska, panhandle and all, cut fully through the pumpkin wall so the entire state glows as one bold window of light. There is nothing left inside the shape, making it a clean, graphic statement of Cornhusker pride. Rated medium because of the long straight edges; score the border lines first, then remove the shape in two or three sections so the corners stay sharp.

Round Pupils and Five Teeth

A big-eyed, grinning jack-o'-lantern face with round pupil tabs left inside each eye and five square teeth breaking up a wide smile. The eyes and mouth are cut clean through while the pupils and teeth remain attached to the rind as solid bridges. Those round pupils make this a medium carve, so pierce a relief hole beside each one first and saw toward it rather than levering the blade, which can snap the connecting tab.
