How Do You Carve a Pumpkin in Minecraft?

Ever wondered how to give your Minecraft world a little festive flair? Here, we’re diving into one of the game’s fun activities: carving a pumpkin! Let’s figure out together how to turn a plain pumpkin into a jack-o’-lantern in Minecraft.

So, how do you carve a pumpkin in Minecraft? It’s a question that might pop up as Halloween approaches or anytime you want to add some spooky decor to your virtual world.

Quick Steps to Carve a Pumpkin

Carving a pumpkin in Minecraft is simpler than you might think. First, you need to find a pumpkin. Pumpkins naturally spawn in most overworld biomes, so keep your eyes peeled during your adventures. Once you’ve snagged yourself a pumpkin, the next step is to turn it into a carved pumpkin.

To do this, you need shears. If you don’t have shears yet, don’t worry! Crafting them is easy. Just place two iron ingots in your crafting table—one in the middle-left slot and the other in the bottom-center slot. With shears in hand, approach your pumpkin and right-click on it (or use the left trigger on controllers). Voilà! You’ve now carved your pumpkin. Simple, right?
