Tiny Pumpkin House

I carved this little tiny house pumpkin last weekend and just had to snap some photos of it. I was trying to find an original design to carve on my pumpkin but it seemed like nothing I was finding online or coming up in my mind with piqued my interest – and then I thought: Why not carve a tiny house in a pumpkin?

I used a clove for the doorknob and toothpicks for the windows, a zucchini for the stovepipe, sliced potatoes for the shingles and decorative mini-pumpkins for the “wheels”. Pretty cute, eh?

    Wow…Now you need to carve a few mices and harness them to the carriage. Lovely work though.

  7. Angie says:

    It’s very cute. One would almost expect a small well dressed Cinderella to peek out the door.

    Best thing about Halloween this year, aside from Charlie Brown and the 6 year-old cheerleader, who, when I responded to the holler, “Trick or treat!” I said, “Trick, please,” promptly set down her plastic pumpkin and did a perfect splits.

    Brit, I looked at your picture and thought, “Man, that looks like Brittany!” What a nice surprise to see you! Very creative little house!!!

    Now that would have out-rolled ‘Sandy’ – a pumpkin for all seasons, had it reinforced glass windows. Even upstaged Cinderella’s coach.

    From Spain to NY and NJ our sympathies. Hope more will take wisdom and design from Tiny House Blog in future. Christine
