Mini Pumpkin Jack-o-Lantern Candles

A fun way to display mini pumpkins. I first saw this idea in Ladies Home Journal and had to try it.

Hollow out pumpkins and cut a hole in the bottom. I used a pumpkin cutter to make the polka dots on the sides. I divided one pillar candle into 3 parts and placed them in some stemmed candle holders, secured them with melted wax and placed the mini pumpkins over them.


 So easy to make, so fun to look at.

So cute, and they add such a warm glow! It's crazy, but I'm 52 years old and have never actually carved a pumpkin! I've watched many people do it, but never jumped in myself. I admire that you have done such a great job with these pumpkins!
