Hello again my friends. I’m sorry I haven’t been all that talkative this week. I’ve been working on a couple of projects behind the scenes and unfortunately some of it took longer than expected and burned up all my making-blog-stuff time.
Not to worry however. I’ll not let you go without a post tonight. Enjoy this picture dump and sleep soundly knowing that Scarydad has everything under control.
Have a live Christmas tree and hate having to water it? Me too! You have to move all the presents, take multiple cups and attempt to get the water poured just right and not spill any. It’s not a difficult task, but it’s no fun. You could even say it sucks.
There has to be a better way!
Well, there is and today I’ll show you how to make one for about $3-$5 worth of materials instead of the $10 plus $5 shipping (Seriously!) devices found online.
Good evening my beloved. Tonight I will show you how to make floating ghosts for your yard haunt. These are very simple to make and have a very cool floating/flying effect when the wind blows. Here’s how to make them:
Good evening my friends! Tonight I will show you how to construct a wonderfully inexpensive little scarecrow for your yard haunt but first I must thank The Morrigan for stepping up in a time of crisis. You see, your friendly neighborhood Scarydad was attempting to revive something he found in the road and he learned that more electricity is not always the answer to an unresponsive specimen. My electronic portal to your world was temporarily shut down until after “sometime between 12 & 5 PM.”
That portal has been reopened so let’s get to work, shall we?
Good day my faithful Minions! Isn’t the weather wonderful? Well, Bride of Scarydad made me promise to wait until October before setting up the yard haunt. Man, I have so many projects it’s going to take the better part of October to get it all set up! I suppose if I put out a little bit every day I won’t have to hire a mutant. But then again, there is all the fun that comes with having a mutant hanging around for a few days…
I’ll keep my options open.
Meanwhile, behind the facade of this innocent looking suburban home, I have been creating pure mayhem. And gravestones. Mayhem and gravestones, yes indeed. Click the “Read More” button and I’ll show you how I did it!
Good afternoon! Today I’m going to show you something you can do with a plain, old gourd. I’ll admit I didn’t make this one; I bought it last year at the Scarecrow Festival. But these little guys are easily Bride’s and my favorite of our Halloween decorations, even of the ones I’ve made, so I thought I’d show them off!
Do y’all want to see something awesome that will also warm your heart?
Check out these super-creative wheelchair costumes! I just pulled a couple pictures off the site to show off. There are a lot more RIGHT HERE!
Good afternoon faithful Minions. Today I show you how to make your own Skeleton Jack o’ Lantern. Please let me know what you think by adding a comment or sending a message to me at scarydad@scarydad.com
Happy Haunting!
Hello there my faithful Fallen. Today we launch the Pinterest Project we discussed last week. This project also falls under the Fun for Under $5 projects that began with some googly eyes. I will be adding some tags and category headings a little later on and hopefully this will be a regular thing. The spirit of DIY is not to have to shell out a bunch of cash to realize an idea. I hope to help with that.
So, here was the project, copied directly from Pinterest, description and all:
Hello minions! As I was lying around the house recovering from the zombie virus I got a little bored and decided to create some friends. You don’t need corpses and lightning to create life in inanimate objects. All you need is a few pair of googly eyes.
