Bats in the Belfry....

Or in this case, in the wood shop! I don’t know if it’s fair or not, I had made this mobile a few years back for Halloween. Did hang them on the porch one year and they looked really cool, fluttering around in the breeze! There was a light near them which cast shadows to make it appear like there was a whole flock(?) of them. Unfortunately, the late October wind was a little to brisk for them, and “batted” them around until they were knocked down. Incredibly, they survived the fall, one ending up two stories down on the ground! So I restrung and hung them in the shop, to remind me of some of my “battier” ideas…

what a great idea… I can see them hanging from a tree, blowing in the wind (ok, so maybe they’d get tangled in the tree).
But I do like the “mobile” aspect of them Very Spooky!

I knew the Batmobile still had a spin or two left in it….
