This Woman Turned Her Home Into Cookie Monster For Halloween
A Pennsylvania woman took Halloween decorating in a different direction than most this year by turning the front entrance of her home into a giant Cookie Monster. Lisa Boll says it was a fun way to shout out Sesame Street for the show's 50-year anniversary.
According to CBS 3, Boll used a bright blue spray paint to color the shrubbery around the front entrance of her home. The shape of the vines already naturally looked similar to the shape of Cookie Monster's face, so all she had to do was add styrofoam eyes and a cookie in its mouth. By "a cookie," I mean Boll also constructed a giant chocolate-speckled masterpiece to lay on the path into her home, as this giant Cookie Monster of course needs to be eating a cookie!
According to CNN, Boll is happy with how the decorating turned out, especially because it's not actually scary, meaning younger children can enjoy it on Halloween, too. "It was surprising how many people get a big kick out of it, so it's good, it's fun for Halloween and it's not a horror thing so it appeals to kids under the age of three, it's not scary," Boll told the network.
There's really no cuter way to pay homage to the beloved show as it celebrates half a century on air as of this year. Well, OK. If she'd somehow been able to wrangle an Elmo out of her greenery, that would've been pretty cool, too. Regardless, scary Halloween decorations are not really my thing so I'm loving this wholesome Halloween content. Give me all the Cookie Monster shrugs!
