About a month ago I received a Draco stencil from Ultimate Pumpkin Stencil’s and was finally able to carve my pumpkin last night!  After TWO very long hours I finished carving my Draco, it was less like carving and more like peeling and digging (but you can cut if you want) and I was very happy with the results!  I will warn you all now: this is not for those who cannot take their time, have arthritis or have no patience.  If you can take your time and pay attention to details you will absolutely love these stencils as they make the process of creating amazing pumpkins a lot simpler.

The process starts out with cutting around your stencil and taping it to your pumpkin, after that you take a push pin and carefully make points around all the black areas of the stencil.  After you finish that it’s time to take off the stencil and start carving or peeling depending on the look you want. I opted for peeling my pumpkin so the light would shine through the skin rather than having holes.  This was the longest part of the process because you have to take your time or you will break the smaller areas and it will look like a big blob.  Overall I liked the product, the only problem is that the stencil can only be used once since you print it yourself.  It would be nice if it was made of vinyl so you could use it over and over without wasting paper.  But otherwise, a great product and nicely priced at only $3.95.

I was invited to attend the preview of Harry Potter: The Exhibition that was held today, but was sadly unable to attend since I’m on the other side of the country.  Luckily reports are now appearing online from various sources.  ABC has the best report so far, but I’m sure some other fan sites will have reports and photos up soon.  KomoNews has also posted some photos, some may be seen below.

The Exhibition opens on the 23rd and more information may be found here: http://www.pacsci.org/harrypotter/
