Pumpkin Carving Ideas
Pumpkins all over are ready to turn
into Jack O’ Lanterns. Pick some up from a patch and start your
annual pumpkin carving ritual but do it with the tricks we have up
our sleeve. Here are some fresh ideas for pumpkin-carving that are
sure to inspire some of the best looking pumpkins in your
neighborhood:
1. Cookie cutters are a great way to ensure perfectly carved
pumpkins. Choose durable stainless steel cookie cutters like
ghosts, witches, owls, stars, circles and pretty fall leaves to
plan your design. Position the cookie cutters on the pumpkins and
gently press in as much as you can. Now tap them in with a rubber
mallet till they come out from the other side. Some cookie cutters
may lose their shape and will not be re-usable.
2. Vellum or any translucent paper can be used to give out colored
light from your carved pumpkins. Once you have made the cutouts on
your pumpkin, cut vellum slightly larger than your cutout and then
place it on the inside of the pumpkin blocking the cutout securing
with straight pins on the inside. As paper is flammable, you will
not be able to use candles. Use Tap lights instead.
3. Turn pumpkins into a pretty lantern by cutting out a regular
design all around it. Cut a large ‘S’ template that fits the
length of the pumpkin. Trace it all around the pumpkin at even
intervals and cut them out. When you will light tea lights or tap
lights inside, the pumpkin will look like a lantern.
4. Use a potato peeler to make features and indentations that do
not require cutting out the complete piece but require just the
peeling of the upper skin.
5. Give your pumpkin characters funky hair by poking holes in the
top of their heads and sticking out Christmas lights from them.

HOME CLEANING
Give your fridge the 20-minute clean-out
(NC)—Cleaning the fridge means
different things to different people. Due to all of life's time
constraints, many of us aim to simply maintain by wiping up spills
and residues when needed, putting off the big job until it's dire.
Even the big job can be cut in half, say the experts, with a little
forethought, plus the right, all-purpose cleaning aids. So here,
courtesy of Mr. Clean is a thorough, 20-minute clean-out for your
refrigerator – or perhaps 30 minutes if you have food for an army.
Time: Zero
• Turn the temperature-control to
'Off.' If you have a refrigerator with a drip pan underneath, remove
it.
• Take all items out of the
refrigerator and throw away food that is outdated or spoiled.
Time: 5:00 minutes
• Remove drawers, but leave shelves
in place. Spray clean shelves, fridge interior walls and door racks
with an Antibacterial Multi-Surfaces Cleaner. Wipe thoroughly and
rinse. Dried, stubborn food stains can be removed easily with the
proper cleaning tools like Mr. Clean Magic Eraser.
• For odor control, place an open box
of baking soda at the back of any shelf.
Time: 10:00 minutes
• Wipe or wash the drawers and remove
food matter and stains from the drawer compartment. If stains are
really stubborn, try Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Extra Power. It is 50%
stronger than the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Original.
Time: 15.00 minutes
• Replace the drawers. Turn fridge
on.
• Return food to the refrigerator,
first wiping down bottles or jars that are sticky.
• Spray and wipe down the outside of
the refrigerator, and you're done.
Time: 20.00 minutes

DECORATING
Halloween Decorating Ideas
If you’re in the mood to embrace the charming side of Halloween
this year, check out these easy ideas from Jo-Ann Stores to add a
playful and creative touch to your un-haunted house -- inside and
out:
* Show your trendy side by dressing your table with vibrantly
colored place settings that feature friendly spiders made from
basic shapes with large animated eyes.
* Accent your mantle with spider votive holders on a yarn table
runner to add quirky distinction to party d?cor.
* For Halloween entertaining, give your guests goofy handmade
spider boxes filled with goodies and treats. With wiggle eyes and
bright, glittery colors, these little favors are gifts your guests
won’t soon forget! (See instructions in sidebar.)
* Greet guests and trick-or-treaters with a festive door wreath
made with silly monster and jack-o’-lantern faces in a rainbow of
colors.
* Colorful lights aren’t just for Christmas anymore. Use
strings of lights to decorate outdoor trees and bushes for
Halloween. For a fun, friendly feel, add lively and unexpected
hues of green and magenta with traditional orange and blacks to
bring fresh life to your outdoor lighting.
* Post unique stakes in the yard featuring cute character
cutouts to welcome guests (instead of scaring them away!)
* Let kids make their own personalized treat bags this year by
easily stitching two pieces of black felt together with a strip at
the top for a handle. Glue on ears, eyes and whiskers to make a
black cat or use green and orange felt to create a pumpkin.
