Just some decorations from last year
Hey everybody. I see that people post pictures of their displays here, so I'll post mine. I didn't actually do "a display"--I had isolated stuff here and there. I kept it more low-key because the kids are little and I didn't want to scare them, but as they get older I'll be pulling out the big guns. I'm a little embarrassed compared to everyone's great displays here but we had fun anyway!
So here are a bunch of pics from last year:

Great pics, Melanie! I especially love that raven in the first one. I LOVE ravens, I keep meaning to add them to my decor every year, but I run out of funds before I get a chance to shop for any!

Re: Just some decorations from last year
Thanks, ghostess. I love the ravens too! I actually bought two more for this year, but they're feathered, not iron. I'll post pics on the decorations page later of the stuff I've bought so far.
Now if I had you to help me decorate...then I'd have it goin' on. Come on over! Oh heck! What's 1500 miles between friends!

Re: Just some decorations from last year
Can you believe I only have ONE raven? It's one of those feathered ones that is motion activated to caw. I have a raven table runner that a good friend of mine bought for me last year as a hostess gift for the party. I loved it so much that I used it as a wall hanging instead so it wouldn't get dirty..lol
It'd be so cool if we all lived in the same neighborhood.

OMG, please, that neighborhood would not know what hit it. They'd think an orange and brown tornado had just arrived.ghostess wrote:

Sure would be fun, though.

My dad says he loves these decorations. I think the gravestone is a little corny, no offense.

Re: Just some decorations from last year
I currently live outside of Palo Alto, CA. at a friend's house in the mountains.
It's difficult to get there and the house is a 1/3 of a mile from the front gate so needless to say there are never any trick-or-treaters but that doesn't stop me from decorating...
It's on 25 acres so if I really went nuts I could reproduce a lif-sized (death-sized?) graveyard.

Like I've said, I live with my friends on their ranch and I pretty much get to do whatever I want to for every holiday.
There is a barn that has the beam sticking out of the roof (for hauling hay bales up) and I'm thinking of making a hang-man up there this year.
If I get the nerve to climb the ladder that is.
