If you’re like me, you were to finish the full body zentai suit that the market first Totters until this year. Have one of your accessories or “falling victim” set and not set this year?
I bought the Spirit Harvester prop, and it has never been out of the box due to time constraints. Which, I guess it’s cool, considering it may be new for next year. I also got a new pair Bluck great I have not had time to develop, and a “victim of a spider’s web” of Wal-Mart I did not open.
A number of little things do not display this year, mostly put things in detail as strings, faux barbed wire, foam, etc.. I also have new things that have not been out for two years now because of time constraints. A few things have conspired to put me under the gun on Halloween day, namely the work of the day and bad weather during the week. But really, I’m the only one who knew. The amount of stuff that was there made quite an impression, even on me. And it’s close enough for jazz. There’s always next year to nail it! Yes I am guilty of forgetting something. I bought a bunch of lights landscaping Waymart had crackled glass globes in July. I just wanted the globes. I was going to use them in my decorating with some flashing LED to light the haunting. I put in a box on a shelf and when we were packing everything away, I saw the box sitting there.
Well it gives me months to get these things so much that I can use next time. I never set up anything because we have too many things. In fact, I started serving some things that have not been used for years. No need to keep something that has not been used and never will again.
I waited too long to start my tombstones and only two were finished with lettering. The rest was hastily locked gray dry so they can at least be set up remotely. I will definitely work on these throughout the next year, especially if I want to create the detail that many members have shown in their graves. I bought the fabric, but never built my Boogie Man size to my nightmare on the theme of bathroom (the bathroom downstairs has a shower that will be complete “Oogie lair”). Not much, since all of next year will be the theme of Halloween Nightmare Before Christmas and will be the perfect time for him. I never tell anyone what my plans are for the year, this so if I can not do something, nobody will know and no matter what I’m always “good home”.
About 25% of my collection of yellow zentai suit accessories has not seen the night of Halloween. I have so much to do, and this year I have really bad back pain. I also forgot a few accessories in the basement, as my skeleton in a cage, my vampire Staggering was not ready, my body PVC accessories were not made, I was supposed to have some thematic SILENT HILL to haunt not have time to do anything to him a lot. Next year we start is in September instead of October. We learned our lesson this year. My son told me a couple of years, “Dad, you’re the only things missing that are not taken out.” And he’s right – they do not miss what they do not see. There is usually not enough out. As for this year, new things have been finished with minutes to spare, but ran out of time to correct some of the things broken in the last year I kept meaning to move. Note to self – make a list and check it.
