We’re starting Halloween decorations way early this year. We’re going for a graveyard theme. I’ve added a few more tombstones from last year’s display. I’ve managed to get some more “raw material” for the tombstones.
The paint job ain’t great, but at night, they look better lol. I’ll work on them a little more. I’ve found a simple way to keep the styrofoam grave stones from blowing away. Simple and easy. Will have to see how I can adapt that to Christmas lights.
It’s a work in progress so far. Pam is off tomorrow, so we’ll probably spruce things up a bit more. She wanted to involve more of the yard, instead of a “Strip of Horror” down the driveway, like we normally do. More room to scare ’em, I guess…
And we’ve added Mike’s door from his Volvo to the proceedings lol.

We have both home made and bought stuff… most of the tombstones are hand made and painted etc, it’s a mix, but we love it too.. every year we try to add some new things if we can.. we’ve added alot more tombstones this year.. nice grave scene..
we also will be putting out an old suitcase with a bag of bones in it, and the hands will be holding the sign up that says ” bone voyage ” we will take a picture of that later and add it, but it’s pretty cool 🙂
I love Halloween too.. I decorate and dress up but nothing elaborate like you guys. All my stuff is home made……I’ll see what condition I’m in closer to that time. I have to haul everything in and out myself and I have a bum ticker still. Yes, put pics on when you have them ready….
That is hilarious I can’t wait to see the finished product. Make sure to keep up the posts it’s great to watch the progress.
