Thread: Show off your Spooky Town - deciding whether to start collecting

Tweet

I have never paid much attention to the Lemax Spooky Town stuff until I was at Michael's today. They have some cool more creepy ones this year, Grisley's Greenhouse, Translyvania Zoo & Little Monsters Schoolhouse.

I got a 50% off coupon & considered starting collecting....

I'd love to see everyone's displays.

how did you get a 50% off coupon for Michael's? I can only find the 40% ones!

some pictures of my display is on the spooky town thread or in my albums.

I love the villages.. but a word of warning.. they are addicting!!

oh god yes they are adicting the first year I decided to add spookytown to my decorations I bought over $1000 worth of stuff because I kept going back for more and for every year since I have spent anywheres between 200 - 500 depending on the year... but sadly we moved into a new place this year and dont have a place to put it up!!! anyways you will love it for years to come again they are very adicting!

Oh my, I knew it would be sana expensive collection if I decide to start. I got the 50% off Michaels coupon at the register when I bought something.

I second the question where are people getting 50% off coupons for Michael's?

Here are my two displays from last year. Since then, however, I decided to scale back - way back - and I sold off several of my buildings. I just did not like the over-crowded look it was taking on, plus I really didn't have room to spread it out like I'd like. Not to mention storage room! The animated buildings are pretty delicate and must be stored upright and in a climate contolled area, so no attic storage. I have an entire bedroom closet dedicated to spooky town storage!

Anyway, I've decided to only do a couple of small displays with my most favorite pieces. Right now, I'm finishing up a display base for my Gothic Ruins (old church) and cemetery pieces. I'll post a photo when I get it done.

Wow, Nice collection Madame Leota!

Heres a pic of our Spooky Town at its largest. Had to use the pic thats on the official site. lol

I started collecting last year so i only have small display...and with the prices, don't think I will be getting much this year. All I really want is the Green House anyway.

Didn't take any good pictures of it...only found one I took while still setting up
