    Frequently asked questions

    How do I use a pumpkin carving template?▾

    Print the stencil, tape it to the pumpkin and poke small holes along every line with a pin or poke tool. Remove the paper, join the dots and carve out the black areas.

    How do I turn a photo into a pumpkin stencil?▾

    Choose From a photo and upload a clear face, pet or logo. The tool turns it into black, grey and white areas: black is cut through, grey is shaved and white stays as skin.

    What size should I print the stencil?▾

    Measure the flattest side of your pumpkin. Small pumpkins suit a 12 cm print, medium ones 16 cm and large carving pumpkins a full page stencil.

    Are these pumpkin stencils printable for free?▾

    Yes. Every template, photo stencil and name stencil can be printed or downloaded as a PNG for free, with no sign-up and no watermark.

    What is the easiest pumpkin carving design for kids?▾

    Classic, Happy and Ghost have big, simple shapes that are easy to cut. Older kids can try Bat or Moon and stars, and adults can carve the shaved areas of photo stencils.
