The neighbors have been gawking at it since it went out. You are a brilliant teacher at these!!!! Thank you for leading me through what will most likely be my favorite Halloween decoration for years.

  • @dannyr2573
    @dannyr2573 Рік тому +9

    So everyone interested in doing this project, it's pretty fantastic to do. I'm currently in the middle of completing my version but I have a few things to say. If you don't have these scrap materials around it can get quite costly. All things purchased at home depot besides the tools I already had and scrap wood and bucket I had laying around I spent a little over $200 to do this. Just giving a heads because I didn't realize how much things were till I was in the middle of picking up all the materials and wanted to follow through with it. Regardless, when it's done it will be a rewarding project and you can resuse again for next season. Excited to finish this and move on to the next thing! Cheers!

    Great Stuff foam is a great sculpting material. just a quick tip, after 4 minutes, try spraing the surface with water (I just use a spary bottle) and you can just push the parts protruding too far into place. I love the concept! Very creative, and thanks for the monster mud recipie!
