Any suggestions or ideas?? I can't make the obstacle course too much larger since it rolled down the hill the first time I set it up :shock:

I didn't even notice the sling shot until I came back and looked again.

Love the Idea !

You Could get a Piece of Rebar (at homedepot)

Hammer it in the Ground, and Put one of the birds on that,
So it looks like it's In the Sling Shot.

I did something Similar this weekend with Tweety Bird
I wanted him to look like hes flying.

At night you wont see the re-bar

Great idea! I was trying to figure out how to have it supported since the wire on the slingshot isn't very strong, but REBAR IS PERFECT! Thank you!

I love Tweety too!

Two more down!

I adore the Night Owl pattern!

Image

The new lights I have are bright enough that I was able to point the carving at the ceiling and had a perfect silhouette of the carve on the ceiling!

This one is a gift for the Cafe at work with the title card "What's really in the soup?"

Thank you! I'm super excited about them!

I usually pick out a costume theme to give full sized candy bars to anybody in that costume. Last year it was the Old Spice Guy and I didn't give a single one out. I *was* going to do Angry Birds this year to go with the display... but if the internet buzz is correct I'll be out of bars in the first 20 minutes. :roll:

Last Round of Foamies!

Got a late start today on my real pumpkins and only managed to gut 8 before the dark and cold chased me back inside. BUT! I have borrowed an industrial heater so I can get the other 24 gutted and start tracing tomorrow.

I took some time to knock out one last foam pumpkin tonight! And WOW is she creepy! I bought the background flannel of creepy tooth fairies a couple of years ago and I think it goes rather well :lol:

Image

This is the carving I have been keeping in my car's back window:

Image

I brought a couple of foamies to work and had a coworker ask for a couple so I did a second Deadly Diva for her

Image

and Yoshi for her girls!

Image

Couple of hours sleep and then back at it with the real kins!

HAPPY CARVING EVERYBODY!
