Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 I thought this tip was funny on how to keep ones pumpkin/jack-o- lantern wrinkle free. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Perfect Pumpkin Jack-o-lanterns have a tendency to pucker or shrivel once they are carved. To keep your work-of-art looking great, coat the inside with a layer of petroleum jelly. This seals in moisture and helps the pumpkin last longer. Another good idea is to move your funny face to a shady, dry area during the day. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Never thought about smearing petroleum jelly on a ghourd.LOL Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
