Here is a filler prop for a pirate theamed yard haunt. Very cheap to make I got a foam preformed skeleton ground breaker at Big Lots for around 7 dollars put a red cloth around his head to look like a pirate. then i purchased a styrofoam cooler from dollar store and painted black around edges and fake wood tones on bottom to make a treasure chest next i used scrap pink foam to carve a lock for the front and i used a piece to covor the top of the cooler. next I took dollar store poker chips and martigras beads painted them gold and stacked them so it looked like the chest was running over with treasure. I usually make al my stuff from scratch but these ground breakers are great fillers for a big yard. I hope this helps a Yard Haunter on a tight budget like me.
