cross carving on pumpkin
To carve a cross on a pumpkin, start by choosing a clean, round pumpkin and cut off the top to create an opening. Scoop out the seeds and pulp inside until it’s smooth. Draw a cross design on the pumpkin with a washable marker, ensuring the lines are even. Using a small, serrated knife, carefully follow the outline, carving along each line. Work slowly to avoid breaking thin areas. Once the cross shape is fully cut out, place a candle or small LED light inside the pumpkin. When lit, the cross will glow, creating a beautiful, illuminated effect.
