Here's how to add pizzazz to your pumpkins:

Studded Pumpkins

Draw a simple Halloween image, like a bat or Jack-O-Lantern face, on a pumpkin and push in metal studs along the image lines.

You'll find a colorful assortment of studs at most craft stores and make sure to get "nailhead studs" with the prongs on the back.

Pumpkin Polka Dots

Use a paint dauber to easily dab colorful polka dots on to a pumpkin.
