I guess it is a love/hate relationship

that I have with spiders....they creep me out (the real ones) but I love Halloween.....so they fit there.  That is why a few years ago when I remodeled my patio garden we had these gates made.

Looks lovely in the snow also last December

They are one of my favorite things in the yard.

  5. Very nice! A perfect touch to a Ghoulish Graveyard. Where did you get them if I might ask?

  6. Thanks everyone. I had the gates made by the guys that used to put on the Ironstock Halloween gathering....for the life of me I cannot remember his name. He does/did iron work as his day job. We contacted him with the size of the opening and he made us the gates.

    Cheers!

  8. Those gates are amazing! Maybe you already know this: Sarah Winchester also used spider webs as a recurring motif in her custom-built mansion. Love it!

  9. Those gates are gorgeous!!!!!
    I have a love/hate with spiders too, I always have to release them outside though as much as they give me the heebie jeebies I have always thought they were good luck.
