Show and tell!
This design was on my feed on the socials yesterday. Seems easy enough to make.
@Demolition Yes! those ones that are cut through at some detail and only carved 2/3 - 3/4 way through for subtle features when light goes though it like PE.
@keavdog Oh Beetlejuice, please do. This is going to be good!
We need audio for the trick or treaters so I dig into my collection of CD’s that I’ve already loaded onto a desktop app. These will be pumped through a bluetooth speaker that will be hidden in the front porch area.
Always loved people who go all out for Halloween. My favorite holiday. We’ve lived up here in the country for a while now and we get no trick or treaters. I really miss those Halloweens when we lived in the city. Hundreds of kids would come to the door. Great fun.
There are some houses around here that go all out. It keeps the best day-night of the year alive. The number of trick or treaters each year varies. Just never know.
The holidays(Halloween,Thanksgiving, & Christmas)always make me miss being an elementary teacher. The annual Halloween Parade through the school and around the block, making Thanksgiving centerpieces for the food pantries, and the annual Holiday concert when the kids came back at night dressed in their “Sunday Best”
Yeah, the last school that I taught in actually had a bell tower so as the kids were doing the Halloween Parade another teacher would ring the bell to signal to the neighbors that the parade was starting.
