jackskellington17: a haunted tree is a GREAT idea. I can just see it in my mind...spanish moss and dead leaves hanging, a bat, an owl, a raven roosting, an ugly face, and two long arms with stick fingers to grab passersby...awesome :shock:

hmm a haunted tree - sounds interesting I LOVE IT!!!

I still have yet to even begin to imagine what mine will be this year. I dont believe I will be hosting a party this year :cry: and none of my friends have costume parties - but dont fear I will find an excuse to wear one

Unfortunately, I could pull off the circus midget thing since I'm barely 5 feet tall. :roll: I was thinking about being a Titanic NONsurvivor...not sure...hopefully this isn't in poor taste. :(

LawP, I saw a costume of that very thing a few years ago, the girl wore a sort of grey evening gown, her hair was gelled to make it look "wet", seaweed hanging all over, her makeup was greyish white and a sort of bluish cast around the edges, like she was "freezing". (Blue finger nails would add to the effect.) And to top it off, she had a life preserver around her upper torso that said USS Titanic on it! It was awesome.

Tomorrow or sometimes soon, if I provided a link that will take you to the costume I'd like to purchase, could some of you, especally if you've had any experiences with the quality ,price & S&H costs for a costume from a particular store , let me know where the best place to purchase it would be, thanks a million guys! Will get it posted as soon as possible.

I have to really start saving as the gown is quite expensive, well for me it is. And I'd still have other accessories to purchase to make my costume what I want. It's so hard with how much US S&H prices went up on May 14th, anyone else notice the jump in S&H costs down there?

Many Thanks & Special Blessings Are sent your way :wink:

Welcome Naturepixie! The good thing about witch costumes is there are so many versions that you won't get bored with the same old thing. The coven idea sounds fun! :D

Hi NaturePixie, First I'd say welcome to our Halloween Coven so to speak :D You'll love it here, awesome group of people, all for the same cause! Your idea of a Witch Coven Theme for your 2007 haunt sounds awesome. Maybe we can bounce ideas off each other cause thats kind of what I'm doing, although I want to add a bat cave & have the Cemetry as well.

So nice to meet you, look forward to talking with you more.
