Halloween 2011

I love Halloween!!  Every year I try to add more ideas to my spooky decor.  This is a witch I made last year.  She is made from an inflatable mannequin I got on ebay, a witch mask that I taped ping pong ball size eyeballs in from Walmart, an old witch costume, hat, vinyl cape, black wig, and skull necklace from the dollar store.   I put a fog machine with timer in the cauldron.  On the fence I made a large spiderweb from wide crochet thread.   I put strobe lights in the yard and a color changing light in the cauldron for the fog.  Under the witch's table I put a stereo with spooky music and thunder on repeat.  It looked great at night and was a big hit!  Parents were taking their kids pictures in front of my "graveyard".  I'm glad I roped it off with caution tape to keep people from walking in it.  Can't wait until next year, I've got lots more things to try!
