This is just for the front section of the house (like outside the front windows where plants would normally be). Only thing I need a western backdrop. Shindigz has some but they are expensive. Have to figure that one out still.
HI, the hand looks great...we're hoping to try that soon. We are also doing a western themed yard. What about a wagon wheel, horse tack, we found an old fashioned water pump at big lots clearance section last year for $7.00 . OLd trunks, old saloon type glass bottles, What kind of cactus and tumbleweeds are you using? Our house is going to be the saloon, our enclosed porch will be a poker saloon scene as well. We will also have the usual cemetery, but it will be boot hill this year. Hope this gives some helpful ideas. I'm also trying to decide what to do for the backdrop, I' m leaning towards canvas dropcloth with a black bottom desert with the orange red, yellow colored top sky. It shouldn't be too hard to paint, just harder to find the fabric sized right. PM me if you think of other stuff. We're still thinking /looking for other stuff too.
