I am a HUGE fan of Halloween and was missing it greatly. I was at the market and thought whow I could do the same thing to a watermelon I do to a pumpkin. I am having a halfway (well over halfway now) to Halloween party and will line my driveway with these handsome watermelons!

You Will Need (3 things)

  • 1 Watermelon
  • Pumpkin Carving Knife
  • 1 large Bowl

Steps (4 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Clear off a table or area on the floor and line it will a trash bag. I would not recommend newspaper because this can get messy!

  2. 2

    Begin like you would an actual pumpkin. Designate a top and cut it out.

  3. 3

    Now because a watermelon is much more dense than a pumpkin you will spend the bulk of your time on this part. . .Cleaning out it's delicious flesh and placing it into a large bowl or pot. What I will do this time and recommend for all of you to do is to make a watermelon salsa with all you have left!

  4. 4

    Once your watermelon lantern is all cleaned out you then get to draw the face and wah lah!
