Craving pumpkins twice as fast:
Simply scoop out the pulp with an ice-cream scooper. Its not only speedier, its neater too. All the pulp plops neatly right into the garbage can. Another trick? Use a melon baller to crave neat round eyes and nose holes. It gives you more control than a knife.
Keeping your jack-o-lantern fresher longer. Tired of seeing your jack-o-lanterns shriveling up right after you cut them? Just run petroleum jelly over all the cut surfaces, like the eye and mouth holes. And if your pumpkin is already shriveled? Revive it by soaking it in
water for a few hours. The jack-o-lantern will instantly come to life.
Making your home smell like Halloween! Sprinking favorite autumn spices, like cinnamon and nutmeg, on the inside of the jack-o-lantern lid will smell stronger and last longer than putting out expensive potpourri. The heat of the candle makes the pumpkin pie aroma waft throughout the house or porch.
Creating an instant atmosphere. How can you make your house look more spooky? Just use colored light bulbs in lamps and fixtures at the front of the house and on the porch. it will make the house look festive immediately.
Make your Halloween so easy its scary!
