I regularly peruse the do it your self blogs and sites and find a lot of very cool costumes (see previous posts) and other Halloween decorations. I already posted some good costumes so here are some sweet Halloween decorations.
Creepy Crawling Skeleton - This walk-thru is a bit more in depth than a 5th grader or probably even an 8th grader could complete without assistance. However, the end result is creepy and even without movement would be cool looking. [Creepy Crawling Skeleton]
For those of you that want to create the whole experience and are up to the challenge, try your hand at this working drawbridge with sound. I would be curious in how it could be modded to work with a front door or even someone's haunted house. The ideas are sound and the step by step walk-thru is easy to follow. [Working Drawbridge]
For the younger crowd or for those of us that just like a bit easier project, FamilyFun.com has a large selection of do it yourself crafts that are easy and as the name says fun for the family. My favorite is the CandleEyebra that is very simple but would be cool if you had a large quantity of them and you could do it to different sized glasses for other effects.For a huge list of items visit the Monsterlist of Halloween Projects. This site has a lot of good ideas and projects.
Go crazy as this is the time of the year where spooks and goblins run amok. You know everyone loves seeing the house that went over the top with Halloween decorations each year.
Oh and Mom I like socks. There is nothing wrong with socks.
