Default Crosses and urns

F.Y.I. if you have a Hobby Lobby around you, they are running 80% off sale on certain home decor, including crosses, urns, obelisks etc.. I picked up several free-standing, and some for tombstones and coffins decor. (Depending on size $2 to $4 up to a foot, $10 or more for the free standing)

t.k.

Crazy, that's sooooo bad!!!

Big Lots has 50% off their crosses and statues. Many would look great in a graveyard. The crosses are about 24" high on a base and would be $7.50 at 50% off. It's so funny because a bunch of them are on Ebay right now for like $30.00 each plus shipping.

I picked up some really cool 18" tall aged stone urns for $2.49 each at the Hobby Lobby sale. I also picked up a couple of gothic pillars for $5 each.

Tom---If you have a Dollar General store in your part of Indiana, there are also some great crosses for 1-3 dollars!

Ooohhh, I just got back from Hobby Lobby. I'd never been there before. I was expecting a store like Michael's, but this place was huge!!! First off I saw the various crosses in the garden decor section--they were 2/3 off. I picked out several. Then I saw the ones in the home decor section for 80% off. I had a bunch more picked out. I had them all over the floor and in my cart while I decided which ones I wanted. Some lady came by and asked me if I was starting up a church! I ended up putting a bunch back, but I got some cool ones. Couple are candle holders. Off to check out Big Lots now.

I went to Hobby Lobby last night and I got a great cross for my "vampire hunting kit" and an urn to go on my mantle that really looks like it could contain someone's ashes! I also found a great pedastle that I am thinking of doing a skull display with. Still working that one out in my head. I'm checking out BigLots after work!

I hope you dont think you are a real vampire hunter. I was friends with this kid who had a little buffy obsession. He had a desk drawer filled with custom made stakes, all the seasons on DVD, all the games, all the action figures, and he sincerely thought he was a vampire slayer. This was about a year ago. He was not kidding around, he actually thought he was a vampire slayer.
