Halloween project builds.

Over the past several years I've been slowly building up an assortment of Halloween props and displays. Every year I try to add something new to the front yard. Our giant spiderweb, hung between two palm trees, has become neighborhood Halloween tradition. People come back year after year to take pictures of their kids in front of it and are always happy to see that it is back up.

The spiderweb build was pretty easy but it has a great, and enduring, effect. Included here are some other projects that I've either completed or are in the process of being built.

I find it much more fun to either build something myself or take some existing prop/toy/decoration/costume and repurpose it to my liking than just buying a pre-built prop. Of course, I do have a number of pre-built props just because I can't built *everything* from scratch. I just don't have the time.
