Thread: Making My Graveyard Bigger

Tweet

Hey Guys...

I have a small yard and a decent sized driveway which are right next to each other. I was thinking of connecting the two to make a bigger "yard" for my graveyard. Does anybody know how I could do this? I know I could probably buy a roll of the fake turf and lay it down on the driveway, or even get some camo netting, but I am stuck on other ideas. Can anybody else help?

Tough situation. The artificial turf would look ok, but you will have a challenge getting tombstones to stay put if you have any weather.

• The less artificial grass you show, the more realistic it will look (and the less "grass" you have to buy.
• Use some brown fabric to make a freshly dug grave.
• Make "Cement" grave covers out of styrofoam sheets.
• Make your graveyard fence solid for the first 12-18" and flood the entire cemetary with cold fog that stays close to the ground. This will help hide the difference between the real grass and the driveway grass.

You could buy a roll of cheap plastic sheeting and spray with some spray glue.Apply leaves and grass from yard or a park and stake down the edges in the grassy areas.Tombstones could be made with small bases to hold them up and bases could be covered in similar manner.

I like the Leaves idea, but don't spend too much on it because the leaves will crumble when you try to store them.

For low lying ground fog, I wrote up a "How to" on this link ...

you could use the plastic and just cover it with a thin layer of dirt and as other suggested some leaves. but that might be a big mess esp if it rains hmmmm

plastic get slippery when wet, maybe some cheap outdoor green carpet with leaves scattered and low lying fog

If it rains you would need to fence it off for safety this is true.Cheap cemetary fence would work well for this.Storage?Unless you have an outdoor shed it would be a huge mess.

why hide it use it as the entrance to the cemetery as a walk up the have gates on both sides of the drive that go in to the cemetery
or

Make a Mausoleum that you can take apart afterwards if you have your own home build it so you can use it for a storage shed? Just some more ideas to think about.

I like the mausoleum idea. Use a couple of sheets of 4x8 Styrofoam from Home Depot to make a wall of cripts and put it on the front of your garage door. Some of the cript facings can be cracked and one could be ajar with a skel hand coming out!!

Buy a bale of hay
Cut the strings and spread it out.
