36 Free Pumpkin Stencil Template Printables! Article

Pumpkins, pumpkins, pumpkins! With autumn underway, we’re thinking of creative ways to give our pumpkins a personal twist! We’ve got 36 free printable stencil patterns to help you do just that - use these free patterns to carve, chisel or paint your perfect pumpkin design.

All the designs are scaled to print out onto a standard 8 1/2 x 11” piece of paper, but you can change each design on a copier if you’d like to make them larger or smaller.

If you're carving or chiseling your pumpkin, tape the template to the pumpkin and trace the design by poking holes into the paper to transfer the design with a pumpkin carving tool kit, awl, needle tool or even a ballpoint pen.

Or if you'd like to create your own stencil to paint your pumpkin, it's easy to create one with an adhesive backed paper like Con-Tact paper. Tape the pattern under the adhesive paper, and cut it out with a craft knife. Alternatively, you could flip the Contact paper over with your design underneath. Place on a light box or against a window and trace the design on to the paper backing, then cut out with a craft knife.

You can also use a stencil blank and stencil cutter to make a custom reusable stencil!
