Wolfmoon Halloween 2012

This year at Wolfmoon Cemetery we introduced the Werewolf's lair. The werewolf is just a half bust sticking up form the middle of the bushes on a pole. We scattered bones and skulls all over the place to make it a little more gruesome. It's also a nice place to showcase our Kiss pumpkins.




Freddy's Corner


 This is on the south side of our yard. It's the 7 foot tall Grim Reapers realm.





We also added a 14ft Grim Reaper to the garage. Not an easy task, we had to use a cherry picker to get it up there.


Another addition this year was led lighting on the porch. It wasn't quite as bright as I was hoping but it still looked pretty cool.



This is our witches kitchen 



Another new addition from Spirit Halloween  - love this guy.
 


 Here's our costumes for the year. My son was a Tusken Raider. The mask is handmade using a basic skeleton mask, linen, cardboard, leather, and painted markers for the tusks, and painted pens for the head antenna things.


My costume is a day of the dead skull. Part of it's tattoos from Spirit Halloween and the other part I used eyeliner.

Halloween Costumes 2012

My sons Tusken Raider (Star Wars) costume we made for him. The mask is made out of a cheap skeleton base with toilet paper rolls for eyes, markers for the tusks, Cardboard wrapped in leather for the mouth, and pens for the antennas. It took forever to make but I think it was worth it.


My day of the Dead Costume. I didn't think I looked that scary but there were quite a few kids that were reluctant to take candy form me. LOL

Halloween 2011 Part 3


Our Kiss Pumpkins - sorry they're kinda hard to see this year. I need to figure out a better lighting system next year.







This pictures kinda spooky looks like he's a crying ghost becuase of some smears on the window.



Again sitting completely still for longer than 2 seconds just doesn't happen.







My witches kitchen - I painted styrofoam this year and attached it to it. But i was in a hurry so next year I'll add the detailing.

Halloween 2011 Part 2



Not so scary costume for school - Jango Fett/Starwars

These pics are a little blurry do to long shutter speed and that fact that it's hard for a little kid to stand completely still for longer than 2 seconds.
