    A few years ago, my sons preschool hosted a no-carve pumpkin competition among the various classes. Most of the pumpkins that were displayed in the front office were Disney pumpkins and then their were a few Dreamworks Pumpkins like Trolls! I decided to snap photos of each of the pumpkins to give everyone inspiration and ideas of their own no-carve pumpkins.

    No-Carve Pumpkin Ideas

    Disney’s UP! Pumpkin

    Disney's UP!  Painted pumpkin with paper print out with house.

    My sons class made this Disney’s UP! Pumpkin. They had the kids use their tiny little fingers as the “balloons”. They printed and cut out the house, characters and used cotton balls as fluffy clouds.

    Stitch Pumpkin

    Bright blue painted Stitch pumpkin with foam ears.

    Here is an awesome of Stitch from Lilo & Stitch No Carve Pumpkin. A painted faced paired with craft foam to bend the ears and glued them on the side.

    Jungle Book Pumpkin

    Grey painted pumpkin with The Jungle Book characters on top with leaves and pumpkins around it.

    Love this jungle book pumpkin! They just painted the pumpkin gray and glued on the figurines! Plus decorated around it!

    Peter Pan Pumpkin

    Peter Pan No Carve Pumpkin pumpkin with Neverland misfit boys.

    Peter Pan is a classic and one that is super cute. Technically NOT no carve, but I still wanted to include it in my list!

    Mike Wazowski Pumpkin

    Mike Wazowski No Carve Pumpkin painted pumpkin on a pink table.

    I love Monsters, Inc. and Mike Wazowski is one of my favorites!

    Nemo Pumpkin

    Mr. Ray no carve pumpkin with nemo and friends on a pink table.

    Mr. Ray from Finding Nemo. They added on some soft foam and painted on the circles.

    Shark Pumpkin

    Bruce the Shark from Nemo as a No Carve Pumpkin on a pink table.

    Bruce the shark from Finding Nemo! All painted with a little construction paper.

    Winnie the Pooh Pumpkin

    Winnie the Pooh stuffed animal sticking his head in a painted brown honey pot.

    How adorable is Winnie the Pooh stuck in his “hunny” pot!

    Jack Skellington Pumpkin

    Jack Skellington white painted pumpkin with a red santa hat.

    My son is Nightmare Before Christmas obsessed and he absolutely LOVED this Jack Skellington.

    Jack Skellington carved pumpkin with his dog on top all painted in white.

    Another Jack Skellington and technically not a “no carve” but still awesome!

    Mickey Mouse Pumpkin

    Sorcer Mickey Mouse painted pumpkin with cardboard ears and blue hat.

    You can never go wrong with a sorcer Mickey! Cardboard for ears, paper hat and lots of glitter.

    Dalmatian Pumpkin

    Painted Dalmatian pumpkin with black felt ears.

    Super cute Dalmatian no carve pumpkin pup! Paint, added 3-dimensional eyes, and fabric fleece for ears!

    Trolls Pumpkin

    Blue Troll with green glitter foam and blue hair with tulle.

    A blue sparkly no carve troll pumpkin!

    Purple painted troll with purple glitter foam and tulle hair.

    We have another troll but this time purple!

    Poppy Pumpkin

    Pink poppy painted pumpkin with pink tulle for hair.

    I saved Princess Poppy for last. To construct this pumpkin they used paint, fabric, tulle, and foam!

    I hope you enjoyed my round-up of 15 No-Carve Pumpkin Ideas that give you the real-life feel. All spotted at my sons preschool last year. If you want to make your own and don’t want to use a real pumpkin you can always purchase a faux resin pumpkin. Most stores will have them on clearance this time of year.
