In case you’re in a crunch, here’s another no-carve cutie. Halloween is less than a week away, but no worries, I still haven’t carved mine yet. Yikes. Admittedly, I’m behind this holiday season. I have some yummy treats to post (but first bake), and my costume pattern is still pinned to the fabric. Here’s hoping for some free time this week.

I went to a pumpkin patch yesterday, which means it’s officially fall. Perhaps a little too ecstatically, I dragged my boyfriend through rows of pumpkins until I found the right one. I’ve debated on whether or not I should carve it, since carving is messy and it might rot soon. While I decide, here are some lovely ideas for pumpkins if you don’t want to deal with the carving mess. Now that I’m a grown up, it’s time to have grown up seasonal decorations.

3. Martha makes magic again with her Toadstool Gourd and Pumpkin display. There’s also a tutorial.
4. These plaid pumpkins are adorable over at Better Homes and Gardens.
Also, here are some carved ones that look like they require a lot of work. But I couldn’t leave without showing you these cuties
Porcupines! Aren’t they perfect? There’s even a tutorial, but this one seems like you have to be a pumpkin carving pro to create these.
