Halloween 2007

This year we are planning something new for Halloween, although we won't be setting anything out this year till a few days before Halloween. I tried to start the graveyard this weekend, but on the first night, vandals knocked everything over, and our displays are starting to look too nice to me to be tackled.


What we are planning are skulls.......mountains of skulls! We started a week ago by making our own molds for casting.

After painting the skulls with liquid latex (about ten coats over an entire afternoon) and surviving the ammonia fumes, we had to create two mold boxes and start creating plaster skulls.
We then paint them with some left-over house paint and spray paint. So far we have 20!!!
