That is awesome!!!! I never thought of using the trim pieces of pillows covered in latex. I have to make a room full of these types of vines this year for our haunt!

Really love the look Bobzilla! Reminds me of banyon trees that I saw in Hilo and like the ones seen in Jurassic Park. Terrific idea. Who would have known Joann Fabrics...

BTW I just looked through your albums and just love your work. I've seen a number of the individual photos on the forum before but had never looked through your collection. Quite inspiring. Do you do professional haunt work or is this your hobby gone wild?

How difficult was it to feed the wire through the rope?

Not to bad, just be careful not to poke yourself in the hand or fingers with the end of the wire when you're feeding it through ! OUCH....it hurts

Those banyon trees are cool ! I did a pro haunt last year, but it's mostly my hobby gone wild

Awesome stuff Bob! I'm going to be finally getting around to my pirate theme this year...hopefully all goes well. Getting ready to build my pilings.

Anyways...if anyone is interested in dorp/jute I spent a lot of time last year finding a good price for the stuff. I ended up buying an entire roll which is 4'x225' for $85 shipped!! Compare that with the price at Home Depot for 4'x35' piece for $35. And the funny thing is they are both from the same company! Goes to show how much mark up the middle man gets :P

I might try out dipping some of my jute in latex and see how it goes. Anyone know where would I get latex to try it out?

Thanks Great find on the jute ! I looked all over, but couldn't find it online for a good price. Let me know how the pirate build goes ! That's funny you mentioned dipping jute in latex, I just got some jute and was going to try that this weekend I buy my latex by the 5 gal.bucket, but you can get it at Michaels in smaller quantities.

Use a Michaels coupon for this, it's a little pricey. I used latex on rope to make creepy hanging vines : Creepy Hanging Vines
What are you making your pilings out of ? I made mine out of sonotubes. Here are a few pics Let me know if you need any help with your pirates :
