Halloween 2017 Carved Pumpkin

My hubby carved Snoopy as Pirate (most of you know I'm a fan of Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow as well as Snoopy & Woodstock so this combines the Pirate theme together with S&W) pumpkin using a white styrofoam pumpkin. The Snoopy Pirate with Woodstock image is a free image from Internet. Hubby turned it into a carved pattern. He uses a dremel tool to carve/shave the pumpkin.
