How colourful and creative are all of these ideas x #KCACOLS
Thank you, glad you enjoyed them 🙂 x
How cute are these! Halloween is certainly going to be diferent this year, a few arts and crafts at home is the way forward. #DreamTeam
Yes definitely! 🙂 x
What lovely ideas, I love the no-carve pumpkin monsters and the creatures – especially the pirate pumpkin. He is fantastic looking!! This is giving me great ideas of fun things to do with my daughters. We especially need to make it fun this year, considering how different it will be. Great suggestions! #dreamteam
Ah glad it gave you some ideas 🙂 Can’t decide what to do with ours! x
How lovely are these no carve pumpkin ideas. We’ve done this 2 years in a row now, and just love how much more hands on they are for little ones. Those minion pumpkins are hilarious.. I think we HAVE to try making some. Thank you for sharing these ideas with the #DreamTeamLinky xxx
Ah amazing! Can’t wait to see what you make! 🙂
I love these! I’m going to show my girls! Thank you. Thanks so much for linking up at #KCACOLS. Hope you come back again next time.
Fab, glad you enjoyed it 🙂 x
I love all of these, some great ideas. I definitely think we’ll be painting rather than carving this year, my daughter is only 3 so I trust her more with a paint brush than a knife!

Haha yes mine are 5 and I still don’t trust them! Enjoy 🙂
Wow what fantastic ideas, I am totally going to try these with the kids. I think my son would love a Forky or Minion pumpkin. #KCACOLS
Haha yes Forky is so cute!! x
Wow lots of fantastic ideas! Especially handy that you don’t need to carve them. Love how colourful some of them are! Thanks for sharing this list with us at #KCACOLS 🙂 xx

These are brilliant! I had a go at carving a pumpkin for the first time ever last year and it was hard work! Love the unicorn versions! Thanks for linking up with the #dreamteamlinky
Haha yes carving them is surprisingly hard work isn’t it! 🙂
Love the emoji one – very clever! Pumpkin carving is so messy isn’t it so love these alternatives #DreamTeamLinky
Yes haha! Hope you’re well xx
These are all brilliant and so colourful. I really need a Forky pumpkin! Haha.
