Halloween 2025

For various reasons I didn't have much time to work on an elaborate Halloween project this year though I had also indicated I wasn't going to do anything big anymore after last year. I did want to do something a bit better to keep kids directed towards the front door and off the lawn where there is a spiderweb of extension cords that they can trip over. Previously I just had some garden stakes and some caution tape but I wanted to do something that I could reuse. I found some metal balusters in the bargain bin at Rona and added some plastic skulls to the top followed by some yellow plastic chain.

I have considered learning to weld so I could do something really fancy with metal stakes and bat wings but that will have to wait for another year. This year I didn't put out the arch or the monster in a box because the weather was supposed to be terrible which it was in the morning but cleared up later in the afternoon. Will have to stop listening to the weather man when prepping for halloween.
