- | + | A yearly feature on the site, the '''Punkin Stencils''' are [[Printables|printable stencils]] to overlay on [[pumpkins]] for tracing and cutting. Starting as a simple [[HR:stencils.html|stencils]] selection, it returned for Halloween '04 with almost twice as many pumpkins as a pumpkin patch. In 2005, it was updated with the front row of Pumpkins and the light switch Easter egg. In 2006, a new front row was added. In 2007, another new layout debuted, this time using a conveyor belt, which has been used every year since. | |
