well after 4... yes 4 years away from not having a display, and last year a few mums last Halloween said oh aren't you the house that had that big display up... it was great. Well I guess big for the UK .
So this year I have dug out the countless boxes of bits and props out of the loft. No mean task I shall have you know. so after repairing some props I have made a start on our Witch shack for this year.
So far it's cost me pence for the nails and screws. All the wood including framing was some old fence panels from a friend I have . They were destined for the recycle yard or a bonfire in November.
Now it's taking shape it made the hard work of stripping down the old fence panels worthwhile. oooooh de-nailing wood not my favorite job. the roof was also some really old felting that was only fit for the tip, but all being well I get a couple of years out of it on here.
Still got loads more to do inside, eg box for hiding electrics and speaker more lighting a holder for the potion book, dress the shelves etc the list goes on. Still not sure what Witch we will use in there we have some smaller hanging ones which I'll turn into standing props or this Witch we made a few years ago.
Already I've changed my mind about the shelving. I'm going to change into a corner unit from what it is now. Are we ever Happy with what we do lol
