Wow, I don't even want to think of how bad your apartment/house smells

Take a peice of paper with the ISU logo on it.

Tape the paper to the pumpkin so it conforms to the pumpkin.

Poke small holes through the paper into the pumpkin to outline the logo.

Remove the paper and cut with knife along the outline that you created by poking holes in the pumpkin.

I think there are some coloring pages on Cyclone.com for kids that work great for this.

Good luck!

Save it to your desktop.

Then when replying to a message at the bottom is manage attachments click that then another screen will show up.

Browse and find your file and upload.

Try that.

do it just like the stencils you can buy. poke the holes along the black lines, then cut along the lines made. you should be left with a kick-@$$ pumpkin carving. any questions let me know. have fun.

Looks good wolverine, quite doable.

If you want to carve one easily and keep it year after year, go to Michaels and buy a carvable fake pumpkin. I thought it was stupid until one of my friends did it and hers are awesome. Put in a little light (no candle).
