Title: ...and now for something completely different!
Post by: Les Symonds on October 07, 2015, 09:55:21 PM
With Halloween fast approaching, the window displays of Bala are slowly giving way to garish orange and black plastic tat, so I thought that we'd have something a little different at Pren. Well, here it is - 5 shrunken heads be-skewered onto wooden stakes. Mmmm.....nice!

...so what's the whackiest thing you've made?

I think the hair on the larger one is a bit overdone Les, and not sure about those eyes, perhaps a little too large, Otherwise your usual quality stapling and twig insertion.
