Yes, the World Series is happening, but without Baltimore Orioles baseball, it just isn’t quite the same.
To bring a bit of the Baltimore Orioles into your life at the end of October, the team has released a big set of Halloween stencils.
The set is perfect for carving pumpkins or for other art forms. The stencils can be downloaded for free at the Orioles MLB website.
While the stencils are designed for pumpkins, there are plenty of other ways they can be used:
- Painting on t-shirts
- Creating an Orioles mural in your home
- Adding Orioles designs to furniture or textiles
- Making signs for the 2018 season
- Using in scrapbooks
- Styling mosaics or quilt ideas
- Creating coloring pages
Stencil designs showcase Orioles logos
These stencils include two versions of the Orioles bird, one with the smiling face and the other with a competitive grimace. They also include the script logo that the O’s wear on their home and away jerseys. There are also two script O’s – one on home plate and the other all by itself. The #Birdland is also an option for a clever pumpkin.

But, the most unique and challenging option is the stencil that replicates the 25-year anniversary of Camden Yards patch. This stencil is extremely detailed with bricks in the background and the Oriole Park at Camden Yards in small text.
Favorite players stencils
If you want your favorite ball player on your pumpkin or on a t-shirt, there are stencils of Adam Jones blowing a bubble and one of Manny Machado‘s jersey with 13 on it. There is also an action silhouette of Chris Davis hitting a home run. If you wanted to, you could change the numbers on the stencils for other favorite Orioles players.

To access the stencils, you download them as PDF files. They fit on 8.5 x 11″ paper but could be adjusted to the size you need on any copy machine. The MLB website provides instructions for carving them and advises using toothpicks to trace the shapes of the stencils and to get the backlight after placing a candle or light inside the pumpkin.
