Halloween is coming: 10 '19

With the backyard complete, CC's attention  has shifted to the front entry way.   

She really liked the way the Carolina room looks festooned with its mini lights. ghosts and eyeballs, so she pulled our xmas lights from storage in the attic and, started popping  on more  Dollar Tree eyeballs.

That's when things started going awry.   CC thinks that the inexpensive  Dollar Tree eyeballs that look so cool at a distance in the Carolina room, look a bit cheesy when you are as close to them as you are at the front door.  

So she decided to make her own  eyeballs with ping pong balls and jeweled colored nail polish.

Of course, it takes a lot of eyeballs to decorate all around the front door and the tree next to it, which slowed the entire project down by a couple of days .

In the long run it was worth it.

The front entry looks really cool both  by night

 and

by day.
