I was delighted to find while perusing the holiday section at Big Lots(a chain of discount stores, I've only seen them in the Pacific Northwest) to find some very nice foam skulls for about 5.99. They're relatively realistic and come in either a dull bone or brown-black patina look.
As many of us are not as skilled(or possessed of time) as it might take to create either plaster or traditional sugar skulls for the holiday, I thought this might be a perfect substitute.
I am going to collect as many as I can reasonably make excuses for buying and have a skull painting party around the holiday. If you live near a Big Lots, go scoop 'em up!

*hehe* I like that one! :P
Thankfully most of my friends and people I am around, either still call it MacFrugal's or at least know what I'm talking about.
(And, as far as I'm concerned, it is *still* SEARS PT. Raceway! )
