Really simple. Take a fake pumpkin, like the one's Michael's sells:
Get a pack of your favorite lollipops (I like a variety), grab your trusty power drill:
Install a bit that is the same size of the lollipop stick and drill holes into the pumpkin. I used 1/8". You can be random or drill holes in a pattern... completely up to you! This one is random. Martha Stewart's, of course, isn't :). Visit her tutorial if you want to do it more uniform.
You could paint or embellish your pumpkin at this point if you wanted. Then stick in the lollipops and you have a cute way to serve candy!

I so missed this on Martha Stewart. I'm completely enthralled though and I can't wait to try it out!! This would be perfect for my son's fall festival class pumpkin. :)
Thanks for the inspiration.
