Halloween has passed and I’ve got the pictures to prove it was here… despite all the Christmas crap that’s already adorning the shelves at WallyWorld.
I’ll just link to the Photobucket album. There are several of my front yard (a couple below). It’s the standard Halloween graveyard. All the tombstones are ‘homemade’ and handcrafted by your’s truly. Halloween Album
This year, my wife and I though a Fairy Tale party. A little twisted theme on the traditional Fairy Tales. We dressed up as “Tradgedy Ann & Andy”, though I have yet to find pictures of us.
The inside of the house was decorated into different stories for each room. Example: Living room = Hansel & Gretel witch’s cottage, Dining room = Snow White, Breakfast nook = Rumpelstiltskin, TV room = Enchanted Forrest, Office = Red Riding Hood, and finally, the bathroom = Mermaid (general theme). Lots of little details in each room that don’t show up on the camera.
About 80% of the inside was, in some way, created by me (cage with child made from PVC strips for sealing windows, paper mache, paint, and screws; styrofoam coolers painted and lined with plastic for ‘mine carts’, and plenty more). Enjoy!
