As All Hallow's Eve approaches, it's time to once again attempt to carve the perfect jack-o-lantern. We crafty witches ponder this - what could be more perfect than a Potter-themed pumpkin?
We invited you to check out our Fabric Embellishments section here on Leaky Lounge, where you will find a veritable treasure trove of stencils - most of which would make truly wicked jack-o-lanterns. As for the how-to of it, here you go!
Happy carving!!! -------------------- Jenn |

Oh, now this looks interesting. Anyone got a knife so I can try this myself?

Hah! I caught you, making a mess in the castle! Now where is that discipline form? Ah yes it is here! Do I get permission to whip you? No? Umbridge has gone? What a pity! That woman was the best thing to happen to Hogwarts in a long time.

Ah! Nice to see you Severus! I know how hard you work as a teacher. And I'll put in a good word for you if you ever want to become headmaster!

Yes I did work very hard as a teacher in this institution. I was Dumbledore's most trusted friend too. I think I'll stick with his recommendation over yours any day, Lucius. -------------------- Avatar art by Makani

Too bad that after all it was I who survived the Battle of Hogwarts, not you! Dumbledore was killed about a year earlier - by you, you know. I was never in the Dark Lord's good books after that event, even though he threatened Draco with my death. It doesn't matter whether you supported Dumbledore or the Dark Lord: neither is around any more. -------------------- Thanks to Makani for the art work, and to Kiwi228 for the animation of the avatar!

Now, now, Slytherins- play nicely. I tried to carve an owl pumpkin one year. I could only sort of tell what it was.
