Let me guess, you’re the kind of guy who needs the authentic Burton / Depp style Mad Hatter Hat? Not one of those fairy tale mad hatters full of bright colors and goofy faces. Right? right.

Well, you can take the hipper cheaper DIY route and make one on your own.

OR, you can have someone else make you a Burton style mad hatter hat custom sized to your tea lovin’ head.

OR, buy a ready made mad hatter top hat from the #1 costume shop online; with crazy orange hair, without hair (shown in picture), or even small cocktail party size.

Nothing goes better with the hat than the entire Johnny Depp style mad hatter costume. Remember the flashy orange eyebrows!

Can’t get enough Burton/Depp costumes? Fit yourself into a mysteriously wonky Willy Wonka costume or of course a Mad Hatter Costume.

On Halloween night, lawn decorations get the most attention simply because trick-or-treaters have to pass them to get their treats. Low lying fog, eerie colored lights, and spooky sounds are all just accents to your lawn decorations, which are the center of attention to your costumed visitors. My obsession for zombies brings us to an obvious choice for lawn decorations that should bring a scare or smile to anyones masked face.

First up is the Corpse Solar Light that cleverly combines a solar powered lantern held by an undead rising corpse. It rises 17 inches above the ground and requires no extension cord or batteries because it’s solar powered. Leave it out during the day and it will charge itself up to work at night. With that same idea in mind check out the Skeleton Arm Solar Light, which is basically the same, but just a skeleton arm holding a solar powered lamp and no head. Add a creepy tombstone next to either of these to complete the look… more
