It's pumpkin carving season once again folks! Pumpkin carving has evolved from classic triangle noses and simple teeth in a semi-circle mouth. Modern day carved pumpkins are fancier than ever before. Here are just seven of the many amazing carved pumpkins out there to help give you some ideas and get you started:

| Pumpkin Pi |
|
To all nerds and pi lovers out there, this one's for you. It's a Pi Pumpkin a.k.a Pumpkin Pi. Get it? This pumpkin is pretty cool already but what would make it even cooler is if some digits of Pi were carved around Pi. Anyone up for a challenge?
A cool 3D pumpkin. The teeth and the eyes are carved to a certain depth, not all the way, giving it a 3 dimensional look. Also, you can see that the top of the pumpkin is being used rather than the side using the stem as a nose. It's pumpkin carving taken to a whole new level.
This one is simpler than the previous pumpkins, but it does take some effort and skill to carve. It's a good one to try for beginners who don't want to carve their pumpkins the same way they do every year, round eyes with a triangle nose and a few teeth. This pumpkin really showcases the effect a candle can have on a carved pumpkin. The pumpkin wouldn't be half as good without the amazing lighting.

| Star and crescent moon pumpkin |

A very expressive pumpkin with a crescent moon and a star for eyes and the classic triangle nose. This is an easy pumpkin to carve and great for when carving with children. It's pretty simple but really is something different.
Your pumpkins don't have to be Halloween based. Missing summer already? Add some summer flair to the fall with this Tiki pumpkin great for parties. Add to the fun by putting in some creative props such as over sized straws or even paper umbrellas!
3D cuckoo pumpkin. Whoever thought of the idea of using squash for the eyes and horns in their jack-o-lantern is a genius. That cute little pumpkin on the tongue is absolutely fantastic too! This pumpkin is really impressive but it takes some real skill to carve.
Another great 3D pumpkin. This is the ideal pumpkin for pumpkin carvers who want to try out 3-D pumpkin carving. Grr...
