Bad Children From Last Year

This was a case of finding a great item first, then waiting for inspiration. I spied this old weathered trunk at a yard sale for $10. A no brainer! It took several months before figuring out what to use it for.

I also had a large "Bag of Bones" from a recent ACC sale with no particular purpose in mind. One day while moving some things around in the garage, I happened to set the bag of bones on top of the trunk. BAM! Inspiration struck! All I needed to do was cut out a plywood "shelf", paint it black, and dump the bones in. After adding a sign to the front it was obvious it needed to do more. That's when I added the 2 axis Bucky skull amongst all the other bones and skulls. It gets quite a reaction when it says "You guys better behave or you'll wind up right here with us next year!"
