THE HOUSE OF DESPOND

I figured, if I'm going to spend a ridiculous amount of time decorating my little place for Halloween, I might as well take some pictures and blog it, right? ... Disclaimer: Just because I am blogging it doesn't mean I'm done. I'm still looking for some ground covers I like, and I may set out my skelly flagstones if I have any more prims left.



Come on in! I don't bite ... hard.



I've been collecting Halloweeny bits for years, and this year I finally found a low-land-impact treat bucket to rez. The kicker is, this kitty bucket is a duplicate of one I have in real life :D Instant favorite!
