Nice, umm... err... coconuts...
This costume was actually Lee's idea. I almost peed my
pants the first time I saw him in it. |
I kept wondering why my fog wasn't lying low to the ground
when I was using my fog chiller... I realized SOMEONE kept
turning the fan on when I would turn it off.

This used to be my living room... now it serves as an
office/ workout room. I covered the walls in black plastic
and had a blacklight in there. It really looked great when
there was no freakin' camera flash. This room was where my
fogger and chiller were set up. The cobwebs glowed nicely
under the blacklight. I also hot-glued a bunch of GITD
spiders and cockroaches onto the wall. The "tie-backs" for
the curtains were those blow-mold skeleton hands with a
piece of cord run through them. They were simple and a hit. |
The lighting really was nice for the party, although you
can't tell with the flash from the camera. I learned too
late how to work the dang night shot on it. Everything was
candle lit, blacklit, orange sting-lighted, or flicker flame
lit. There were NO white lights. The light fixture above
the table in the above pic was covered with a cauldron that
I drilled holes in with a large bit so some light could
shine through. I added some green spider web stuff to the
top to cover the top of the light fixture (making sure it
wasn't too hot!) and a couple of bones, and it looked pretty
cool. I had to split the cauldron in half to get it over
the light and hot glued it back together. The process can be found on this page. |

I normally put floating candles in the pool, but I
didn't feel like having to relight and move them away
from the edge of the pool all night, so I threw a
skeleton in there on a float. |
My very first Bucky - a first class one!.... he was one of those specials
from
Anatomical Chart Company, (you can buy them as of 2007 from the new supplier for ACC's line: The Skeleton Store). (I kept telling everyone that the
cobwebs were real, we've had that bench for 2 years, and
it's NEVER been used!)
