Nightmare Before Christmas Pumpkin Stencil

Of all the Disney villains, Oogie Boogie from the Nightmare Before Christmas movie may just be the best! He’s such a Halloween staple that he even takes over California Adventure and hosts Disneyland’s Halloween party, the Oogie Boogie Bash! You can find his face above CA Adventure all September and October too. He’s clearly one of the favorite characters of the Halloween season.

Pumpkin Template Skill Level

One of the best parts of making one of my favorite Disney characters at Halloween time, is this pumpkin pattern is suitable for young children, and even a beginner carver with a little bit of help! Only the eyes and point of the head get a little tricky for beginners. We tried to go with simple designs kids and adults alike would have a better experience craving.

Print Your Halloween Pumpkin Templates

Once you have our free patterns, it’s time to print! We recommend you go with what you love! But you may also want to consider the skill level of your carver. Simple design options and easypumpkin carving ideasfor beginners. We try to keep young kids in mind with each of our templates! But a few may need a pumpkin carving kit with a few smaller and specialty pumpkin carving tool options. Just keep in mind what type you’d like and if you have a more advanced or beginner carver and their carving skills.

We also recommend printing what you need on regular copy paper. Thinner paper is better for easier carving and catching the smaller details of a template.

Prepare Your Pumpkin

If you ordered acraft pumpkinfrom the craft store, your prep work is done! If you’re carving a classic real pumpkin picked from the patch. be sure to clean, scoop, and prepare your pumpkin for carving.

Tape your Pumpkin Face Stencils to Your Pumpkins

A great way to keep your design in place is with simple tape! It’s a good idea to place your design perfectly in place and avoid the common mistake of letting it slip all over your pumpkin. Grab that roll and get it firmly set exactly where you want it.

How do you use paper stencils on pumpkins?

Tape the paper stencil to the pumpkin, and use a thumb tack to trace the pattern poking tiny holes into the pumpkin in the paper stencil design. Remove the pattern and use a pumpkin carving knife to carve the design following the tiny punctures made with the thumb tack.

Do you cut the black or white of the pumpkin stencil?

This depends on the design, so double-check before making any cuts! But a standard pumpkin stencil is meant to have the black elements cut out and removed as the “negative space” you’d cut into your pumpkin.

How do you transfer a stencil to a pumpkin?

You have two options:
1. Carved around the stencil and the pumpkin at the same time.
2. Use a thumb tack to “trace” the design edges and create tiny holes in the pattern on your pumpkin. You will then use the holes as the guide to carve your pumpkin.
