Pumpkins and Ray Villafane

These are the lucky winners from todays hunt!

Today Danny and I took our last trip to the pumpkin patch before Halloween! We might stop by some grocery stores later this week and pick up some smaller pumpkins, but we wanted to make one more trip to Tanaka Farms before the season ends. Our goals were to find two weird looking pumpkins, with lots of character, in order to make some really memorable jack-o-lanters and of course pick up some pumpkin bread! 

What I wore: Sun-glasses: Forever21. Sweater: American Apparel. Shirt: Urban Outfitters. Pants: Paul Frank corduroys. Shoes: Los Angeles Fashion District find.


There weren't that many big pumpkins left, but our mission was to find pumpkins with character, not girth!

I think Danny is an amazing pumpkin carver, but this year his pumpkin carving idol, Ray Villafane, came out with an instructional DVD on how to carve some of his crazy pumpkins! Danny ordered it the second he found out about it, so I am really excited to see what he does this year! Ray Villafane has done some crazy stuff! We try and watch every show he is on around the holiday, this year he did a Halloween challenge on the Food Network and he was featured on The Martha Stewart Show! Here are some pictures of his work:
