2. Glow in the Dark

Make a template, grab a can of spray paint and you're good to go.

Some goggly eyes and some crepe bandage is all you need.

Turn your pumpkin into a work of animal art.

17. Eyeball

Halloween calls for a scary paint job.

I said these no carve pumpkins were inspiration. As I sat here looking at this I thought about spray painting it and then removing the doilies. How cool an effect would that be?

19. The Penguin Pumpkin

Rather an untraditional symbol to use for Halloween but he's so cute, so why not?

Monsters are just perfect for Halloween.

You'll have to raid the kid's Mr. Potato Head for this.
