ikwewe Your street looks so pleasant, bet you get lots of kids! The webby stuff looks great, and the lights. I love any excuse to put up lights.

Kaplan Architects, AIA Your neighborhood looks like mine. We get hundreds of kids. Last year 200 kids showed up at my door and there were many more than that in the neighborhood. People drive in with their kids and it's really lots of fun and quite a scene...

Shanty Shop Leave the arch up for Christmas & wrap like a candy cane then use sidewalk markers down the path too... Bells in the center of the arch with twigs that look like icycles instead . tons of uses! Even cover it with greens!

trebinje The most memorable Halloween decoration I can recall was a BBQ grill set up at the entrance to a Haunted House ... it as "set afire" under the grill by orange & red twinkle lights, and "roasting" atop the grill were assorted human parts - plastic hands, eyeballs, scalp with hair, leg & foot, etc. CREEEPY, and very effective in scaring the kids AND the adults!

Chic Alors Decor & Design Verry scarrry! Creepy eyes looking out from within, lanterns with candles light the walkway. Better go out and buy some more chocolate because it's all gone!
