The Best Free Pumpkin Carving Stencils for Halloween

Halloween is right around the corner and that means you’re probably spending one day during the upcoming weekends visiting a pumpkin patch (or at least heading to your local big box store) to grab a couple pumpkins to decorate and carve. Carving pumpkins is a common tradition in the United States, but unless you’re a professional artist, most of our pumpkins end up looking like a Pinterest Fail rather than an award-winning masterpiece. Luckily for us, there are free pumpkin carving stencils for Halloween that will make pumpkin carving a heck of a lot easier this year, and get you all the props from your kids (because you know you are the only one actually doing it).
