Same Idea Different Time

Well I had this great idea to do something absolutely fabulous with the double window over the front entrance. The idea was to hang a wreath and garland right below the window. So I thought about,how about instead of doing this for only one holiday(because original this idea was only ment for Halloween) I will use the same idea for Christmas except to change it to Halloween to Christmas but that is pretty much self explanatory. For Halloween version the idea was actually thought up about two years ago but I never really had time to make it but that gave me more time to add even cooler ideas to already wonderful idea. In the picture(just for the Halloween version) it is not quite finish,yeah the basic shape and color it there but there are still some major details need to be add like that I'm planning to place a Jack-o-lantern inside the wreath and then add not really sure purple or orange lights in the wreath and garland. For the final details add skulls at the ends for the garland plus MY FAVORITE stick some of the colored lights into the jack-o-lantern and then change the light blubs in the Jack-o-lantern into clear light then change 2 out of 6 light blubs in the jack-o-lantern into flickering light blubs to give the appearance of a candle! Can't wait to see that take shape. For the Christmas one it is basically done execpt for some minor problems but no worries there really easy to fixes. Actually for the Christmas version,it was the starting point for me to revamp all my exterior Christmas decor. I used the same stuff for about 5 years and they were looking pretty shabby for I looked around in the internet and I got completely inspired by the Main Street decor in Disneyland. I just love to attention to detail and art to every little thing they do so I took that piece of advise and made a completely new Christmas decor for the exterior. By the way the Halloween decor is also inspired by Disneyland more specificly Haunted Mansion Holiday. Even if you not a fam of Disney still check out the decor,it's just simply amazing!

Collect!!!

Yeah, This might be basically the pollard opposite of the last post I did yet every important. Ever since last Halloween I was storming up ideas for new "scenes" for this year. I have already finalized my drafts of my ideas and the only I needed to get was the supplies. Well.... I already the main piece during the After Christmas sales and recently I just got the paint and other details. So as I get ready for the project and soon finish it in the upcoming spring the moral of this story plan things out and collect the supplies over a period a time. If I didn't do this right now,during September I would have been so broke and stressed out on this and other maintenance/updating projects plus not related activities I would gone into hiding until I finished everything. Plus, keep your projects in mind when you are shopping because you will end up seeing something that you need for the specific project(s). Soon I will post some pictures of my sketches for the upcoming Halloween Project 2009. Also some new elements and ideas for my existing decor already. Plus, I will post a picture to hint at my !NEW! theme for this upcoming Christmas season

Holiday Decoration

Yes, the holidays are coming quickly.As you enjoy the Christmas decoration this have you ever thought about next year?Yes, that is a little far from now but if you think in advance you can save up to 90% of the cost in decoration. I was planning for a gold,light copper,gun powder metal, and a little of burgundy main colors. Then with lights colored in clear and champagne (basically light yellow.) Also with touches of lighted snowflakes and different shaped stars. Can't wait till after Christmas.

Christmas Tree

Here's my Christmas tree for the guest room. The room is decorated in a modern rustic theme so i tried to keep in the same theme. Note the modern silver globes and snowflake. To add the rustic theme to the tree note the bird ornaments. I hope everyone likes it!
