Tips For Using A Pumpkin Template To Carve A Cat Design
- Inspect Your Pumpkin: Check your pumpkin for any soft spots, which can indicate early rotting.
- Print in Black and White: Print your chosen cat pumpkin stencil download in black and white for best visibility.
- Top or Bottom Cut? For real candles, cut the top of the pumpkin to remove pulp. For battery-powered candles, a bottom cut provides a cleaner look.
- Resize if Needed: If you have a smaller pumpkin, resize the cat pumpkin stencil to ensure it fits appropriately.
- Preserve Your Carving: Rub vegetable oil or Vaseline on all carved areas of your pumpkin to help preserve it for longer.
