I'm still wondering where to get those lovely letters from but this is such a stylish no carve pumpkin.

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

The resource says this is rhinestones but I was thinking you could do it with tacks. Draw the lines and stick the tacks in.

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

Turn your pumpkin into a work of animal art.

A fun paint job.

Use them indoors or out.

Use chalkboard paint and chalk and you can change up your motifs as often as you like.

This would be fun even without the initial.

Upset the neighborhood dogs!

Do this for your house number instead.

Paint your pumpkin, cut out some paper bats and get
sticking.

Well - at least you made an effort to do something!

Use photocopies of photos. It's easier and you won't waste your precious photos.

Just go with whatever flows through your mind.

This is a cute pair that takes little effort.

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?

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

Monsters are just perfect for Halloween.

There's a few ways to achieve the effect once you've sprayed your pumpkin gold - horn buttons, mother of pearl buttons, sequins ...

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

Cut out tissue paper shapes and stick on with Modge Podge.

Spray in funky colors and sprinkle with glitter.

Perfect for the season. Use gorgeous fall leaves.

Go to town with ribbon. I love the rick-rack ribbon.

Cupcake cases? Who'd have thought?

Some no carve pumpkins are just so easy peasy.

Aren't some people just creative? Who would have ever thought of putting a pumpkin in a patterned stocking? It's fab.

Gold stickers and studs look great on black.

These will make the kids smile.

Oh so chic!

When's a pumpkin not a pumpkin.? When it's candy corn.

Two clever ideas. The spider one is painted and then wrapped in tulle to represent the web. The ghost shape is created with thumb tacks.

Who says Halloween has to be dark and dismal? These will liven things up.

These won't get in your hair.

Make the hat from papier-mâché or buy one.

Go with orange or completely change color scheme.

Silk flowers are so realistic and they'll last forever.

Oh this is so funky! Love it. Stick the wax crayons onto the pumpkin, then melt them with a hairdryer.

Make a family or a whole clan.

It's so easy to spell out spooky words in buttons.

Some no carve pumpkin ideas are beyond simple.

No need to get messy and covered in seeds when you go for no carve pumpkins.

Write your own greeting.

Can't be bothered with real pumpkins at all? Raid the thrift shop for sweaters in fall colors.

Glam it up!

After seeing all these fabulous no carve pumpkins I really wish we made more of a splash about Halloween in the UK. It's such a fun holiday I think we're missing out on. Are you going to be carving or not carving this year?
