Yesterday I spend the afternoon carving and painting this beauty. They say you shouldn't blow your own trumpet but sod them, I'm very excited with how my Mexican-Day-of-the-Death-meets-Cath-Kidston-skull-pumpkin turned out. Thats a bit of a mouthful! This is the 3rd pumpkin I've ever carved and the second one this week, so I'm very pleased with myself! After getting over that not so yummy smell of pumpkin I had a great time doing this. I got my inspiration through Instagram, someone I follow was given a pumpkin with a cats face painted on which looked fantastic and instantly I wanted to give it a go, only I didn't want to copy, so I came up with my own idea. I opted for a day of the dead theme so I could make the skull look pretty. You may have noticed I have a floral addiction, so it was only natural that a floral print made an apparence. What do you think?
