    Great job. I'd strongly suggest wearing a respirator when sanding and painting. You're doing a number on your lungs in the canopy with all that.

      See, I'd say the same thing. But I never wear it either 👀 kinda like that chemical smell 😍

      I was really shock to see no respirator too! Or gloves with some of the products 👀👀

    Kara....WOW!!!...my first time watching your incredible creativity!!! You are AWESOME girl!!! What wonderful unique pieces you make!! My paternal Grandma began training me in all things artsy at the young age of 3 or 4 years old!!! So...I've been into art, of all mediums, for over 60 years!!! Again, what incredible talent you have!!! Your eye for detail is amazing!!! One comment, I have seen from others, PLEASE WEAR SOME SORT OF MASK!!! I know first hand, the toll these chemicals take on our precious lungs!!! So, think of it as your safety tip you gave about the hot glue!!!! If you use hot glue...you have burned yourself at some point!! Your precious, valuable lungs, are also being burned!!! Want you safe and healthy to continue to dazzle us with your unique talents!! Thank you so very much for sharing with us Kara!!! Keep on crafting girl!!! 🎃

    Kara this is absolutely amazing. Your skill is top notch. I've got to mention your hot melt process scared the hell out of me. I used to work with it in a professional high volume manner and we always had a bucket of water nearby to plunge a hand or in your case a foot in to stop the burning if you mess up. That stuff doesn't come off until cool.

    These are amazing! For your great idea here’s one in return. Maybe for easier storage you could countersink strong magnets in the seems. Pumpkin can then be stored in 2 pieces and be able then to store from the long magnetic strips they sell for tools

    I loved this video. You showed from start to finish each step. The painting turned out perfect to look like a pumpkin does. I used to do stuff like that back in the day. But was limited on the craft supplies that is available today. I made a black fuzzy 12 foot spider that had a 5 foot fuzzy butt. Used 2 inch round red lenses for lighted eyes. Used it 2 seasons till someone paid me good money for it. Can't do that stuff anymore due to a stroke. Glad you did a video on it. Keep up the good work

    to make the eyes, mouth and nose black during the day you can use backlight rear light spray paint. that is a black transparent paint especially for car lighting. the light just comes through.

    Very cool watching your pumpkin take shape. Those hot knives and cutters make short work of all that trimming. Dont you worry about all the particulates in the air from the foam cutting, shaving, and burning?

    fantastic work ! however, curious to know , do you have an exhaust fan to remove the fumes coming off the stryofoam that you are breathing in inside that tent . They say, if this is polysttrene there are upwards of 100 different toxic chemicals emited as it melts/burns . I sure hope you have some method of removing those fumes not to mention the fine fine dust from sanding the foam that is harmful .
