Create a Smokey Bear Jack O’Lantern

Would you like to have Smokey Bear looking out at your trick or treaters from a Halloween Jack O’Lantern?  Here’s how:

Print this stencil, which looks like this, below:

Then:

Option #1

1. Cut out the “black pieces” from the stencil sheet, using an x-acto knife or similar tool.
2. Tape stencil sheet onto pumpkin.
3. Use a fine-line marker and draw the image ‘through the holes” onto the pumpkin.
4. Cut these pieces away from the pumpkin.

Or, Option #2

1. Tape the stencil onto the pumpkin.
2. Using a pin or other sharp tipped tool “pin-prick” the edge of all the black portions of the stencil.
3. Remove the stencil, and connect the dots/pin-pricks with a marker.
4. Cut these pieces away from the pumpkin.

And,
5. Send us a photo of your result. (We will post some of them.)
