Halloween Discussion Forums, Costumes, Horror!

I'm guessing this is where these go....

I don't have all my photos uploaded yet... then again, I didn't really have a lot of photos anyway-- there was no time between ToTers to take many.

Here are a couple from that night. =)






(My husband carving his p-kin... this was actually Monday night before Halloween)

jadewik, Fantastic decorating! I just love your pumpkins, very well done, I can only seem to make out the 2 though a Muslum Temple right? and a Gennie Bottle Those are just wicked! And I really think its cool how the wax settled on the candle holder. Your husband looks great all dressed up and working hard on his pumpkin too, hope to see a picture of you soon too

the taj mahal looks amazing! that is one of my favorite architectual (is that a word? ) sites! do you make your own stencil for it, or free-hand it?

slightlymad, i just realized that you had posted your halloween pics too! your yard looks amazing! you must have been making things all summer for your haunt!

The 3D ones are free-handed... I used a reference photo (you can see it in the pic with my hubby carving) for the Taj-Mahal. The Lamp was my husband's... and t'other one was the White Rabbit pattern I designed earlier this summer per request. I thought I posted them somewhere else... but I'll repost the pics here.

jadewik, thanks so much for posting the close-ups, they're Fantastic!

Wow, Jade..... looks like the hubby has QUITE a talent!!!!
Those are REALLY great!
And I LOVE the candles....... the dripping wax is PERFECT!

those pumpkins are so cool! it makes me miss halloween already.

Great work Jade....those pumpkins are pretty awesome. Thanks for sharing the pics.

Good Lord, jadewik, those carvings could win contests...awesome job on those!!

If only...

I lose every contest I enter-- probably because people assume I win all the time. I did get honorable mention once....

Thanks, everyone, for all the compliments!

I have one pumpkin I didn't have time to carve. I FINALLY thought of something to do with it. I'll be carving it for a Friend's wedding reception on Friday, Nov 23. I'm working on a wedding-ish design based on some images I found on the internet. Hopefully, I'll finish it before I have to carve it. If not *cringe* I hope I can think of something else to do with it before it rots.

I'll post photos when I have 'em. =)

**Hooch is choking, she is laughing so hard***

OMG, that little one in the electric chair stroller is the funniest thing I have seen in a long time!!! Gotta love her parents. And your yard is STELLAR!!
awesome job.

Jadewik...

I love how you have a TOT station out on the porch that is decorated up. Very cool idea!!! And your costumes were GREAT!! Along with the pumpkins, my fav is the white rabbit. I can just hear the singing: "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date..."

FANTASTIC pumpkin artistry!!

Is that a little tiny cat I see hiding in the background of one of those pics? Oh so cute!
