Thank you. :clap;
About an hour, and that was because we had to wait for the paint to dry. I'm not one for long, drawn out projects.

I ran out of candy this year again. I have to get a count on these trick or treaters. Maybe next year I will set up a grave yard with corpses all over my yard and make them walk to the garage door to get their candy. Hahaha! Corpses are easy. Just stuff shirts and pants with newpaper and lay them out all over the place. Make heads out of paper bags with yarn and paint. Headstones that stand up, I have not quite figured out yet. We shall see.

I like the idea of a graveyard. That would be fun.
We didn't have many kids this year, and the ones we did have were taller than I. And some of those costumes the teenage girls had on, holy crap!! How can the parents let them leave the house like that?

Sponge on black acrylic for an aged look. Dark green will make moss. You can carve out the RIP's or just paint them on. Use dowels stuck in the bottom to stick them in the ground. They are nice and light, so they're easy to stack and store.

Love the vandie cat!
