2013 Halloween Decorating, Day 4


I repaired my headless horseman.  I hope he says standing up this year.



I started working on a few projects that I hope I have finished before Halloween.  I'm working on a new JESTER dummy, but I only finished the frame and lower half today.

I also decided to modify my above ground grave that I made a few years ago.

BEFORE:




















Under Construction:
I added a head to the front that I'm planning on shoot fog out of.  The budgie cords are  holding the head in place while it dries.  I also took the bottom off  and I shorten the top, so it will no longer be an extra 5 inches on both sides.  I just didn't like the way it turned out when I first made it.

2013 Halloween Decorating, Day 2

I finished adding the blue flood lights and the miniature lights on the fence, sidewalk, and house.  Now I only have left a few more steps until everything is complete, but it will have to wait until next weekend.

Stage 3: Lights

2013 Halloween Decorating, Day 1


This year doesn't even feel like Halloween because I've been working so much overtime.  I don't feel light putting out the Halloween decorations this year, but my nieces/nephews are begging me to put them out, so I can't let them down.  I was able to set up about 75% of my yard today before I ran out of day light.
