If you love pumpkin decorations but hate the act of cutting, carving and scooping out their guts, consider these no-carve pumpkin decorating ideas. Not only will they be a fun, creative project for you and the kids, but they’ll also spare you the indignity of getting orange gunk all over your hands!

Another great thing about no-carve pumpkins is the fact that they can be made with all sorts of odds and ends, including stuff that you have just lying around the house. Whether it’s melted crayons, scraps of wallpaper or the leftover jewels from a bedazzling project, no-carve pumpkins can be a great way to recycle your old crafting supplies.

It doesn’t matter how experienced you are with arts and crafts; there’s a pumpkin out there for every level of thriftiness. For example, here are a few no-carve pumpkins that you might pluck down on your doorstep:
- Painted pumpkins decorated with different colors, stripes and patterns
