Darkness swept across the land, the midnight – and bow tie – hour was close at hand, so what would we so obviously do? We would create a Halloween bow tie or two.
Rhymes aside, there’s plenty of LEGO parts that are targeted at Halloween and so great for creating halloween bow ties. We’ve got skeleton heads and bones, all kinds of bats and even vampire minifigures, pumpkins and autumn leaves and decorations and of course chains, weapons and other cool stuff.
Now this post is a bit late to the party since Halloween has come and gone this year, but I wanted to share with you what we were wearing and what you can do with the upcoming bows and straps. This should add to your Halloween ideas for next year.
So first off, we took some bones and chains and a skeleton and sort of build him into the bow tie. the legs are there and so is the head and arms… but not quite where you would expect them to be.
Next I had some fun with fluorescent LEGO parts, including regular bricks, skeleton heads and even spiders. They look great in the dark. I do believe there were also some glow in the dark ghosts a while back. Gonna look for those maybe for next year’s Halloween bowtie.
But coming back to the current bow, I also added some bats in there if you look carefully.
Last but certainly not least, I wanted to create a halloween bow tie with pumpkins and something not in black, so I went with Autumn colours instead. We still have scary looking pumpkins and a black spider in there, but the rest is autumn decor.
So that wraps up halloween for this year. What would you have used to decorate a halloween bowtie? What parts did I miss and should use next time? Drop your thoughts in the comments below. And if you want to also make and wear these kind of bows, do check out the Bowtie Bleau shop!
And with that of course, I wish you a crazy day!
