I have no idea. Its just what tiki men have on their heads. Sure there is a story/tradition behind it.

Dick, the concept drawing. Other than straightening up some lines and fattening up the lips, this should be pretty much it. Not intentional, but it kinda looks like Beavis, lol. Not sure how I'm going to pull off the pineapple.
but i think i'll do a Misfits skull this year..
its not that bad with a sharp tool it peels away perty easyactually, that looks like it was carved from the front.. a little to advanced for me
Preserving and Firming Up a Pumpkin
Put the pumpkin in a wash tub of cold water. If the pumpkin is carved, put the carved part face down. Let the pumpkin float, and let the insides fill with water. The pumpkin will absorb the water and become very firm.
If you have fine detail work to do, you may want to let your pumpkin soak over night. This will firm up the pumpkin flesh and allow you to do intricate carving.
For long term storage, put a thin amount of petroleum jelly on the exposed, sawed edges. This prevents water from getting out. If water gets out, your pumpkin will shrivel. Anytime your pumpkin shrivels, soak it in a bath of cold water for one to eight hours, longer is better. Over night doesn't hurt.
Putting a little unscented Clorox bleach in the water will prevent your pumpkin from prematurely molding by killing off evil pumpkin germs.
Use a plant mister to spray your pumpkin and keep it moist. If you put it in plastic wrap to hold the water in and place it in the refrigerator, not the freezer, you can keep the pumpkin looking good for a long, long time.
Once you remove a wet pumpkin for display, you should immediately dry it off. This prevents mold from having a chance to grow.
