magnoliafig 51 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 We haven't been to the fort for halloween for the last three years. But I had the fog bubbles and 25 carved pumpkins. I was Martha Stewart'd out. Yes I start early. I'll be adding to the pumpkins this year. I'm already patrolling ideas for the campground. I thought about sitting on top of this but if somebody else can bring the hitchhiking ghosts to life, I'd be just as excited. I think I'm going to do the dancing ghosts, using two or three dresses and a few masculine forms. I'll give the hitchhikers a try. Tentatively I'll use this thread to document my Halloween trials and errors. :Dhttp://www.bedifferentactnormal.com/2011/10/chicken-wire-ghost-tutorial.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

magnoliafig 51 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Carol, I like the blow-ups. Some are awesome and we have a couple black cat blow-ups, as well as the mickey pumpkin head. But there is something about traditional Halloween that tugs at my heart. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
magnoliafig 51 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Also, we live very rurally with a long winding driveway. No trick-treaters, no close drive-bys. We don't entertain large parties. I live voraciously through decorating our fort campground. We decorate Christmas because those are lights you can see from the road. You miss so many tiny details in Halloween. Busted bird cages with ravens. Spooky lanterns. The lettering on headstones. Yeah… I love camping during Halloween. It's my favorite time. My inner-Martha comes out. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Oh, I love Halloween at the Fort too. We have ZERO trick or treaters in our neighborhood too. We LOVE handing out the candy to the kiddos at the Fort at Halloween.I have the Halloween blowups myself. Mainly because I never have enough Round Tuits, and this lets me decorate my site at the Fort without much effort :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I love these. My friend, Linda, and i were going to do these. We never got a "round tuit" though! I can't wait to see yours! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
