Just stopped by Walmart. They have pumpkins in 4 different colors @ $1 ea. They look like they would light up nice. Bought a few to try out.

They are thin moulded plastic. Open at the top and have a thin handle. I think they are meant to be used like a pail to carry around for collecting candy. I did not measure them but they looked to be about 9 -10 inches in diameter.

Since they have a face i suppose, technically, they are Jack-O-Lanterns.

They sound to be the same I used  last year with a C7 bulb inside. No holes for eyes or mouth.

Here's a pumpkin pyramid I got the idea for while going through Target last year.

This is what I did in 2010:

I wanted custom faces so I turned the pumpkins backward and painted my own faces on them.  Cut a hole in the back for a light.

Did you see the Gemmy singing pumpkins?
