You can bedazzle them, paint them, carve them and dress them. In the true spirit of Halloween, check out this technique for mummifying them - Martha Stewart style.

• For the pumpkin’s eyes, cut two 1/2-inch holes with saw.
• Place map tacks inside holes.To complete eyes, draw dots on map tacks with marker.
• Secure one end of a streamer to stem end of pumpkin with double-sided tape; wrap streamer around pumpkin, leaving a gap for eyes to show through.
• Once bottom of pumpkin is wrapped, secure other end of streamer to pumpkin with double-sided tape.
