By gently scrubbing away at the pumpkin's outer layer, you can create unique designs and patterns that add extra character to your Halloween decorations. Plus, using scrubbing pads can be a fun and creative way to get into the spooky spirit without the mess of traditional carving tools. So, next time you're feeling adventurous, grab a scrubbing pad and give your pumpkin a fresh twist!
