Ernie and Bert Pumpkins

Happy October everyone!

It just wouldn’t seem right if I didn’t post about something to do with Halloween!

Three years ago, I saw some Ernie and Bert pumpkins in some magazine….probably a parenting magazine since it’s Ernie and Bert.

They have to be my two favorite characters on Sesame Street.

There was no Elmo when I was growing up!!

For this project, you need one tall pumpkin and one fat pumpkin, some black fur fabric for the hair, and a carving tool.

I used the fakies so I could have them year after year.

I just eyed how they looked in the magazine to create mine….please do the same from the pic above….I have no idea how to explain it!

Just notice how the eyes, noses, and hair are different for each character and, of course, Bert has to have some big bushy eyebrows!

My kids (and the neighborhood kids) get excited when these come out year after year!
