I like this idea, I've seen it around before. You could make it a lot better by using blued muslin and black lights. Or maybe a string of blue or green lights under the fabric. I think I'm going to make this one, but, without the tree. It's pretty cute, but, the sheets are lame.*
I'm going to do some kind of ghosts this year. One year I made a netting ghost and suspended it with black balloons. The balloons were way up high so you couldn't see them. It floated and bounced all over the yard. It was pretty spooky and at the end of the night I turned it loose and it walked down the street.

Ohhhh, This is adorable. I'd use the really shiny sparkly fabric with a blue translucent glow. That would be nice under a black light. Love your idea of adding strings of lights.
Or get some old gauzy dresses and some rubber horror masks and make, "Dancing Zombie Divas" I love Halloween ideas!
I want a picture!
DD,
I can paint a decent pic but handing me a camera is like handing Kate Gosselin kids. A F-ing disaster! I'll give it a try though...
I had a neighbor who did this using white trash bags but she wasn't careful to make sure they didn't have pointy heads. Her's looked like a clan rally. Talk about scary...jeesh.
I like it, it's not lame. Someone near us out in the country does this. Its kinda freaky looking. We always like it.

I like it too. I also like the idea of blue lights. We have a few people in the area that go all out for Halloween. It's great. Pat, put up a picture when you do yours please.
I love the balloon idea!
The balloon idea works really good, but, you have to keep the ghost really light. And make a base for the string to come out to avoid pointy head. I think a faceless ghost is really scary. I'll post some pics.
Pat, How about some directions, also. I'm not very crafty, but
can follow directions well.
I think the little Ghosts are cute
also.
I don't and never got, even as a little kid, Halloween. By the time I was 11 the trick or treating candy wasn't even a draw. I go whole hog on Christmas. I had to move today and had to face many many many many boxes of Christmas decorations. Maybe I'm done with Christmas too :) I'm pooped and my back is killin me
Viki, I am looking all over for cheese cloth. I can't find any in town. I may have to use something else, and I will put up directions and take pics of the process. It's all hit or miss with me, whatever I come up with. My ghosts usually come out good though. I love those crank ghosts, but, I'm not mechanical.
