 I drilled holes in my pumpkin and then stuck little christmas lights in each hole. I found that taking the picture was more of the challenge. I couldn't get the effect that I was looking for because then I couldn't get the outline of the pumpkin.

I did used my husbands drill to make the holes. Then I stuffed christmas lights inside of each hole so that I could get a better light.

You win for the oddest carving, in my book! Looks like a Christmas ornament!
