A Few Oriental Trading Company Buys
Hey, all. This is my second OTC purchase so far this year. I spent about $60 total. This is only a fraction of the stuff I have, I'm just posting it here because much of it will be in the new catalog we've all been receiving and I wanted to show how some items look "in real life"/close up:
Two owls (real feathers...I like these):
Rubber black cat:
Tabletop gargoyles...two are shown here; I think five come in the package:
Hanging pirate...the bars are cloth...I didn't know that...they may straighten out as they hang a little bit:
Door decoration; I like how this looks:
Second door decoration...I dislike this one...MUCH cheaper/cheesier looking than it seemed in the catalog:
Chain for fence with skeletons (the skeletons here are still in bubblewrap):
"Eyes" which are meant to be stuck in the bushes...I think there are 4 pairs in the package...I haven't opened it yet:

Some of those I saw in past catalogs. Some I never saw before. I must have missed a catalog!!

As though it were a slightly sour sweet.

No, I ordered these online about two months ago. They have a lot more stuff online than in the catalogs. But if you receive catalogs in the mail, these should be in the next one as it should be the Halloween issue.Rising Dead Man wrote:Some of those I saw in past catalogs. Some I never saw before.

But if they're not...they are online.

That's what I thought too. I was a little disappointed with that one! But he'll hang outside anyway. At nighttime he'll probably look at least a bit scary.Rising Dead Man wrote:

Re: A Few Oriental Trading Company Buys
I did not mean it that way. It still looks awesome!! The skull just looks slightly different (But still scary! ) and the cage looks all wiggly because they are cloth.. But it looks more scary when they look all twisted and wiggly because the bars look all bent and old.
