How to carve a jack-o-lantern face

  1. Place the face on the smoothest side and centre the eyes slightly above the middle.
  2. Cut the nose first, then the eyes, then the mouth.
  3. Leave the skin between teeth: those are the bridges that keep teeth in place.
  4. Light it and check from across the room; widen eyes that look too small.
