I know just what you mean. The other night I was carving my pumpkin and accidentally cut Edward Cullen's ear off!

I hate to get an hour into the pupmkin carving process, taking your time and being careful, only to break or whack off some vital detail near the end.

Did you know toothpicks work wonders? You can stick it into the part that fell off and then stick the part back where it belongs with the other end. I have had to do this many times and it has saved many a pumpkin. Hope this helps.

would love to see anyone who succeeded though!

First of all, I totally understand....the same sort of thing happened to my pumpkin last year

. And you're right, it really stinks when you spend all that time for it to just break off like that!!!

Secondly, that stencil looked so complicated, plus it didn't look like my Bella, mostly because the top knot is parted and not up in a knot like hers is. Soooo, I decided to make my own stencil!! I decided to do a Yorkie silhouette (that seemed easiest to me, at least to my capabilities) so I used several profile pics I could find on the internet and free-handed it, then colored it in. I'm just gonna cut out all the black.
We'll see if I can actually do it!! lol

I gave the stencil a try.
It's not perfect buy it still looks kind of Ok.

That came out pretty darn good! Congrats. Looks like it took some time to get it right.
