这个女人把她的前廊变成了万圣节的巨型饼干怪兽

As November approaches, the whole wide world seems to be surfing the highest tide of the Halloween craze. Some can’t spin their heads around what costume to wear to this year’s office party, some run around decorating their house, carving pumpkins or scaring the good people of the Internet with their surreal Halloween photoshoots. And sure, there are some that just marvel at this whole spectacle from afar or the safety of their mobile screen. But this story is definitely not about one of them. Today we speak about a woman who took an uplifting twist on Halloween decorations and turned her front porch to an adorable gigantic Cookie Monster!

随着11月的临近，全世界似乎都在掀起万圣节热潮的高潮。有些人根本不知道该穿什么去参加今年的办公室派对，有些人忙着装饰自己的房子，雕刻南瓜，或者用他们超现实的万圣节照片吓唬互联网上的好人。当然，也有一些人只是在远处惊叹这整个奇观，或者惊叹他们的移动屏幕的安全性。但这个故事绝对不是关于他们中的一个。今天我们来谈谈一位女士，她在万圣节的装饰上做了一个令人振奋的转变，把她的前廊变成了一个可爱的巨大的饼干怪兽!

Pennsylvania-based professional porch decorator Lisa Boll decided to greet Halloween by turning her porch into a giant Cookie Monster

宾夕法尼亚州的专业门廊装饰师丽莎·波尔决定把她的门廊变成一个巨大的饼干怪兽来迎接万圣节

Halloween is just the perfect season to let your imagination run wild and get really creative. That’s exactly what one Pensylvania-based woman did. Lisa Boll decided that she’d had enough of the scary Halloween nonsense and figured out she’d better turn her front porch into a gigantic Cookie Monster! She didn’t expect to get so many positive reactions, even her neighbors were pleased with her creation.

万圣节是一个让你的想象力尽情发挥、发挥创造力的完美时刻。一个住在宾夕法尼亚的女人就是这么做的。莉萨·波尔觉得她已经受够了万圣节的那些可怕的鬼话，她决定最好把她的前廊变成一个巨大的饼干怪兽!她没想到会得到这么多正面的反应，连她的邻居都对她的作品很满意。

Being a huge fan of Sesame Street, she wanted to do something special to celebrate its 50th anniversary and Halloween was, of course, the perfect opportunity

作为《芝麻街》的超级粉丝，她想做点特别的事情来庆祝《芝麻街》50周年，而万圣节当然是个绝佳的机会

Boll revealed she is a huge fan of Sesame Street – a show that’s celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. So it only made sense to her to put the two festivities together and celebrate in her own beautiful way. She said she really enjoyed creating the Cookie Monster on her porch and was glad it’s community-friendly. “It’s fun for Halloween and it’s not a horror thing, so it appeals to kids under the age of 3. It’s not scary,” she says.

Boll透露，她是《芝麻街》的超级粉丝，今年是该节目开播50周年。所以她只有把这两个节日放在一起，用她自己美丽的方式来庆祝才有意义。她说她真的很喜欢在门廊上做这个饼干怪兽，很高兴它对社区友好。“万圣节很有趣，也不恐怖，所以它对三岁以下的孩子很有吸引力。这并不可怕，”她说。

She used vines to form the head of the Cookie Monster around her porch, then sprayed it with blue paint and added “googly eyes” she made from styrofoam

她在门廊周围用藤蔓做了个饼干怪兽的头，然后喷上蓝色油漆，还用聚苯乙烯泡沫塑料做了个“大眼睛”

Giving her front porch a Halloween makeover was not a hard task for Boll, who owns a company that specializes in updating old outdoor decks, called Outback Designs and Deck Restorations. She finished her creation using some vines that she spray-painted blue, then went on to add some “goggly eyes” that she made from styrofoam and even added a cookie to complete the look!

对波尔来说，在万圣节给自家的前廊来个改头换面并不难，她拥有一家专门更新旧户外露台的公司，名为Outback Designs and Deck Restorations。她用喷上蓝色的藤蔓完成了自己的作品，然后用泡沫塑料做了一些“大眼睛”，甚至还加了一块饼干来完成整个造型!
