Thinking ahead...we go to my folks for Thanksgiving in 2012. That means a full week lost to setup. That also means I probably need to setup more for Halloween than first thought. Saw this online. Gave me an idea to either try the same thing, or possibly modify that idea for my mini trees. Maybe take some white nylon fabric, cut a circle, put a ghost face on it (not sure yet on that...fabric paint, sticker, sew on, marker...), in black and non-transparent, and put that over the mini trees! (Ghost Mini Trees) Would it not be a hoot to do a big one over the mega tree!!!! Oh the ideas. Either way...have to get a ton of stuff up way before hand. Looks like I would not be able to do a light up party for the day after Thanksgiving either :-( Oh well.
Wow. Even though it took me a week or more to put stuff away...still got put up quicker than I thought. Tried to catalog everything...so hopefully that will help. Just need to remember NOT to order more red on white wire if I do more Holdman trees! Could have saved some money last year if I had everything labeled correctly. Had 18 strings and would not have had to order more...if I had remembered ;-)

Click on the September archive and then click on comments to see all of the 2009 display blogs. I am going to start blogging with a "Title" and also put the post into the blog so it can be archived by month. Should have done that to begin with. If you are new to this world of "Animated Displays", I suggest you not only read mine, but other blogs. They will help you learn NOT to make the same mistakes others have. Archives
