How do you light your pumpkins?

I'm using the LED lights this year, happy with them so far.

I have a huge squatty pumpkin that I bought years ago at Target. Last year I ran out of clear bulbs so I put a red one it in and it looks soooo cool. The red glow looks really creepy.

BF ran over the extension cord with the lawn mower the other nite *oops*. I need to get another one out before tomorrow nite.

I went electrical this year. Too bright, really. The eyes don't stand out so well because the whole thing is so bright.

Try the red bulb.

turn the pumpkin around then the light won't show as much

We just use tealights, LOL.

Last year we had this thing called Fright Lights where you're supposed to take these individual little light things and stick them in the pumpkin and then put a tea light in them and it changes colors. I got frustrated with them and started hammering them in. But, it worked.

I ran out of tea lights last year and used those green glowie sticks... it looked eerie... very cool

I used to use a tea light. Unfortunately, you can't get decent sized pumpkins here in England, so I don't carve one now. I do however, go mad trying to find candy corn.

Last year we used a fake candle that flickered. It worked "okay" but I wasn't overly impressed. This year I will probably go back to plain old tealights, although, I've gotten some interesting ideas from this thread that I may have to try out.

The magic of candles has yet to burn down my garden...

I have used glow sticks and I also have a gadget that changes colors that is battery operated.
