New for 2003!
We've tried
to come up with some cool new props for year. We don't have the real
"how to" pages or descriptions for these props yet, but wanted
to at least get some pictures posted of what we have so far! This page
is likely to change throughout the month, as be build, add and improve
props. |
Dancing ghosts, with
a fan powered fire. We'll get more pictures later, with instructions. |
Another shot of the ghosts
with the flash on. We have a video of the flame, but we'll have to check
on posting it on this site. We have limited bandwidth, which makes videos
difficult. |
We also decided this year to try to make a giant web in the front yard. We started with 4 ropes strung across the yard. One rope is looped over the others in the middle, to make a good center point for the web. The finished project used 400 feet of rope, that we got from Wal-mart for around $30. |
Then tied an end of another
rope near the center. |
We then start wrapping
around each strand, making a spiral pattern. To keep the rope from sliding
down, you may need a knot or a piece of tape to hold them in place. |
Another shot of the spiral
we're "weaving". |
Near the finish of the
web. We don't have a picture of the finished project here yet. Hopefully
soon! We need to add some spiders, a victim etc. |
A finished version of
my brothers balcony with a smaller web made out of white rope. The spider
is from Wal-Mart. Notice the rappelling poseable skeleton. |
