Yes We Carve - bringing your Halloween pumpkin into the political fray

Filed under: Fashion, Stylish Living



Bumper stickers and campaign pins are so last year. The new cool way to show your support for a candidate is to put his face on a pumpkin!

At Yes We Carve you can see the enthusiasm and creativity of politically-holiday minded folks from all over the country.

It used to be enough to hack eyes, nose and a crooked mouth out of an orange gourd, or scribble a face in black magic marker. Then came Martha Stewart and her ilk, raising the home holiday decorating stakes.

Now, just to keep up you need to download original art stencils. We're all for self-expression, and these Barack O'lanterns look better than anything we ever did as a kid, but we gotta say, this holiday stuff is getting to be hard work!
