Let's show our new stuff!!!

[MauEvig]

Picked up this little guy when I went to visit my family back in August: http://i636.photobucket.com/albums/uu89 ... 2c0303.jpg
They already had Halloween stuff out at Big Lots which got me excited! Of course, I had to add another Black Cat to my collection. I need to add a new one every year as per my little tradition.

We also got a few paper lanterns:

This Black Cat one we got from Dollar General. (Not the "haunted" one mind you, a different one. Although it could be Haunted for all I know. )

The pumpkin one we got from Dollar Tree:

We got two of each of those and both though it would be a cool idea to alternate the cat and pumpkin ones to give an orange and black feel.

I'll probably post more stuff later. ^^ There's a LOT of new stuff we got. Some of my old stuff is still at my Grandma's though. XD

Do the cats eyes blink or steady burn?

[MauEvig]

They cast a steady burn, but the light itself is pretty bright.

[Demonic Duck]

Cool new stuff MauEvig.

[MauEvig]

Thanks Demonic Duck!

I shall post more later, but I've been pretty busy lately.

[ScarecrowJack]

You do know they have drills for that right?

Really? I'll have too look into that.

[ScarecrowJack]

Those are some really nice pieces, MauEvig. I think it's cool you get a new black cat every year. If you don't mind my asking, does your handle have any significance? I'm unfamiliar with the word and too inept to Google.

One of my coworkers gave me a candle carousel that she was going to sell at a garage sale!

It big, about a foot and a half tall and a foot wide.

Sorry about the photo quality, cell phone.

That looks awesome Andy! Free Halloween stuff out of season is always exciting!

[MauEvig]

That is pretty awesome Andy. Really creative! I like getting free Halloween stuff too when people know I'm such a Halloween nut. When I worked at Sitel, I was given a little black cat that glows and it's like a little snow globe but with glitter inside instead of "snow." My mom has also given me a witch once, I think it was something she found at the school she cleans for, which a teacher was just going to throw away anyway. You know what they say, one man's junk is another man's treasure! (Or woman's in my case haha!)

As for the cat, the handle is basically just the cat's tail.

Yard Sale season is approaching, so if I find any cool gems, I'll let y'all know. I DID find something at the Antique store, another black cat to add to my collection, but I shall post later.

Really though, I should be saving my money but it's hard to resist when you find cool stuff like that. lol.

Grrrr!

Andy, you've seen my photoshop skillz, you send that to me I promise not to make an image implicating you in some dastardly deed. That's so cool!

I assume you light the candles, the rising heat causes the fan to turn, the object flies up into the air. Like some kind of turn-of-the-century drone?

[Spookymufu]

no nevermore, you light the candles and the whole thing catches fire and burns down andy's house, best he just leave it alone

[Andybev01]

I lit it once for about 5 minutes and then extinguished it.

Waaaay unsafe.

[NeverMore]

I'll bring the marshmallows!

[Andybev01]

You're a bad influence.

And I mean that in the best possible way.
