Wow! Pat this is a very creative piece, when we put our heart and minds into a project the masterpieces that can be created.

To be honest, I wouldn't call it cute This pumpkin looks scary! But it's also funny and I'm sure that some of my friends would like it. I'll show this picture to them.

This is another interesting idea:

Lol - although I'm not sure that I would agree it was cute Pat - its definitely comical.

But yes - apart from making faces and lanterns you can do some wonderful things with pumpkins - like for instance make them into plant pot holders, candle holders, table decorations and even comical animals too

So for anyone wanting some further inspiration of what to do with their pumpkins - here are a few more great ideas

I love all of these ideas. I wish I had more time to do all of them! Sad thing is...I didn't plant any pumpkins this year. Silly me.

Gata montes, I love this little owl in the last picture in your post. It's so adorable. I must show it to my boyfriend, he has a thing for owls
This is another funny planter:

Wow these pictures are really cool. I had a long day at work the other day and just looking at some of these pictures made me smile. I now want to grow pumpkins, though I think it is too late to start growing them now. Well there is always next year I suppose.

Whitewolf2578, growing pumpkins is easy. They're enormous plants though, so make sure you have enough space for them
Those pumpkin planters are hilarious:

Looking at them made me laugh really hard!

Cute !!!! I just showed my kiddos and they said... " mommy can we please do that?" What a creative way to use a pumpkin. I love the fall so I'm always looking for something new and different to do with pumpkins and fall decorating. I think this is going to be added to my "to do" list for sure.

Especially since the kids already saw it. It's on their list too!
Thank you again for sharing!

Children love things like this When I was a kid, I was very creative and I truly enjoyed making decorations.
This pumpkin cat (or maybe it's tiger) looks really adorable, doesn't it?:

Now this one IS definitely cute. A Shirley Temple pumpkin!

 

[claudine]

Haha, I didn't think about it, these succulents really do look like curls
Here is another funny idea, Batman pumpkins:

I think I could make something like this with my tomatoes, lol

Awww these are really cute ideas! They remind me of Wilson from Cast Away starring Tom Hanks.

I think the pumpkin planters are adorable, but won't they be all gross and messy when they biodegrade?

 

[claudine]

Unfortunately, I think they will So I guess pumpkin planters can be used only for a very short period of time. It's still better than nothing.
I prefer regular flower pots though.
