Well, maybe not, but at least I hope to help give stuff a new spin!
Hi everyone! I am from Florida and have a backyard haunt and a Halloween party. I love to decorate for Halloween and Christmas, our yard is definitely one of the best in our neighborhood.
I love Halloween. I love Christmas too, but it is different, it is for traditions that families carry on year after year. There is familiarity and comfort in that. You pull out the boxes and basically "a place for everything and everything in it's place" kind of thing. Sure, you might move the tree over there and try the snow scene over here, but you know what I mean.
But Halloween is open to ideas and creations. Anything goes. And no one would question you. Sure you may set up your stuff the same way year after year, but you can add and embellish each time. No other holiday lets adults PLAY, gives us the freedom to make up stuff out of scraps, junk and normal everyday items.
I find the most creative people are those who are haunters, we have nothing to inhibit us. I didn't mean to rant, but I am so in the zone lately, I am dying to build a fence or prop. I just buried some clothes to age! :jol:
