What do you like to decorate with? That bucket of blood?

Some of my decorations so far.

Post by Jack Skellington » Wed Sep 28, 2011 3:18 pm

My wife & I put some of our inside decorations up today.

We've still got things to add, like spider web & hanging decorations.

We also went to our local craft store & picked up a few items too! We've got to paint them yet though! :)

Please forgive the picture quality, I had to fix the pictures with croping & colours to get it to fit. I had aleady even dropped the camera settings down to take 3MP pictures & they were still too big! :x I normally take 14MP pictures!

What's with the JOL in the plastic bag?
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

I live in England Ramaries. I bought them at my local supermarket. Yes the Jack O'Lantern is paper mache, I bought it my local craft store today. :)

Andy, I've yet to open it. Although it has to be painted, I don't want my 4 year old son putting his grubby mits all over it! :lol: :wink:

Do you have any bats, Jack? I have a fun one that hangs upside down--he gets hung in a different spot every year. I think he needs friends though so I may go 'bat shopping' this weekend :)

We have one small hanging bat, we'll try & get some more of them. We also have some stick on bats on the windows - some glow in the dark ones & some gel ones.

My local supermarket only had a couple of items out yesterday, they're putting everything out on the 4th October. They'll hopefully have some. They'll also be selling some ravens, so i'll get a couple of those too. I picked up a "Grave Yard" sign yesterday as i've already got a few tombstones to put out, hopefully i'll be able to get some more too! :)

I have a few ravens too. For some reason, they used to scare my niece (this was just before she was a year old). Now she's always asking to "pet the Halloween birdie" :)
