Storage...ugh.

I took advantage of the 3-day weekend to finally put everything (and everybody--get it? every body?  bodies? corpses? ha ha ha....yeah, okay) where it belongs for the rest of the off season.  We put everything in the driveway and put it properly away one by one.

If you recall, this is what my backyard looked like on November 1, and that's pretty much how it stayed for the next couple of months while other things took priority.  Now...



My Dad built these 3 cabinets in the garage that house almost everything








All the lights, fixtures, extension cords, foggers, and miscellaneous small props on the right.



All my full size characters in the middle





And all Three Laboratory animatronics (plus some extra foam and my bucky) on the far left.


But what about the Giant Rusty Gear of Doom?

























It was just too cool to put away for the rest of the year  ;)

  5. Pam, I actually keep all my head props out all year :)
    Here's an old shot of the Shelf o' Heads: http://www.freewebs.com/skeletonhand07/DSCN8056.JPG

    Then there's the Gear in my room, the Nosferatu shadow above my bed....there's actually quite a few props not in storage, now that I think about it...

  9. I here you on trying to store everything. I have two storage buildings and the top of our garage overflowing with props.

    And Will, you're cracking me up with the Frankenstein comment!
