Today when I got home
from work, I started putting away the Halloween decorations in the front
yard. As I was doing it, I thought I really
need to upgrade the spookiness of the decorations. I have a couple of wireframe pumpkins that
are wrapped with thin, orange plastic strings.
And we have a couple of plastic, moaning ghosts that stand guard next to
the stoop railings, and that’s about it.
I have been wanting to get a few more things for a while, but just
haven’t had the time to go looking around, or haven’t seen anything appealing
in the stores.
So now I am thinking that next year I will see about stepping things up a little bit. I found some DIY things that I may try and do if I can find the supplies cheap enough. I think I would like to try and make a small, fenced graveyard, and also maybe a couple of scarecrow type ghouls. I think they can be made easily enough with some PVC pipe as the skeleton for them, and then I would just need to get some clothes from Goodwill to shred up, and then a rubber mask to go on top. Sounds easy enough, but we’ll see when it comes to October next year if I actually pull it off.
