Halloween/Our World

 M.T. Box

Someone had tons of fun dreaming up names for these  Styrofoam gravestones!

Halloween house decorating is something that has really caught on in Canada.

Kate said...

Sometimes I wonder if Halloween is for the kiddies or the adults?!

Stefan Jansson said...

People have been creative.

Buttons Thoughts said...

I love seeing other people's creativity I have an orange stuffed pumpkin with an orange dress blowing in the wind:) B

There is something cheerful about these scenes perhaps because of how the light falls on the decorations. Looks like both western and eastern Canada are thinking alike. :)

Fun decorations. There don't seem to be as many outdoor decorations in our neighborhood this year as there have been in the past.

Nice photos ! Where we are here Halloween isn't a big thing as we live in a country village that has mostly Mennonites ! Have a good day !

Fabulous word play. I think my favourite is M.T.Box. Would you believe I didn't 'get it' until I read it aloud?

renae said...

All of these headstones are so hilarious!

Yes this place is so great to visit with my daughters. We laugh and visit with others there and laugh some more.

Rare to see those kinds of displays in Scotland!

RedPat said...

Great names!

'Tsuki said...

Those names on the tumb stone are actually very funny... We don't have this kind of Halloween ornaments in France, so thanks for this sharing.

Snowcatcher said...

I especially like the use of the dried flowers! So much happier than ghouls and monsters! :)

Sylvia K said...

Oh, how terrific, EG!! I love the funny names!! Great captures for the day and they certainly made my day even better!! Have a good week!

Anni said...

I love Halloween...next to Christmas, this is the most fun of days in the year. GREAT and may I say, 'fangtastic' images.

I think Halloween is mainly for the decorators who are adults!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.

I like the hand in the first shot.

Craver Vii said...

Clever names! A few doors away, one neighbor has a bunch of headstones covering her lawn. I should check those out to see if they're as funny as these.

Patrice said...

Love all those tombstones!

Carver said...

The creative decorations are so much fun. I used to do a lot of decorating at Halloween but haven't lately.

Rose said...

Someone is a lot more clever than me!

I like the shots...love that streak fo sunlight.

genie said...

I had no idea Sandy was going to impact you all. That is way up there. It definitely the Halloween Monster Storm. Wish its gravestone was here with all the other ones you posted. They are so clever. Our weather has gotten worse all day, and now we are in the middle of the howling wind. genie

SandyCarlson said...

These are lots of fun. Thanks for these great images.

George said...

Unknown said...

Stephanie said...

Neat names.

Paul in Powell River said...

Cute! This holiday provides many a photo opportunity.

The Cranky said...

So fun; why should kids get all the fun, right?

These are beautiful shots!

Ebie said...

I love the first shot! How clever, the shadow and lighting had the effects of creating an witch's hat!

Angelika Poe said...

wow, your photos look gorgeous, these warm colors and how they shine ...

I have a dear friend in Canada, she spoiled me with such images, thanks ...

Zosia said...

One of my favourite things at this time of the year was to walk around the neighbourhood and see how people decorated their homes for Halloween. Some families went all out and created scenes worthy of a movie set. Loved it! Miss it now.

Francisca said...

M.T. Box is my favourite. After years in the business of manufacturing seasonal decor, I now don't do Halloween (or any holiday season) at all, but I agree with you it's fun to see how others decorate.

Kathy said...

Halloween decorations seem to get more creative every year.
