I'm not especially talented but I've found a couple of easy things to do to make my haunt what I want it to be. First thing i do is plan it out in my head what I want it to look like, then i draw it on paper, what will go where, what i want to make and where it will go, etc...
Right now I'm taking garden stakes and cardboard triangles that i cut out, i assembled them together with just adhesive spray and staples and sprayed them black, it's super easy. Next, i got skulls from the dollar store, I'm cutting out the eyes with an exacto knife and putting in flickering tea lights. The skulls will be impaled on what look like pikes. It's very easy and less than $12.
Another thing i like to do is modify store bought stuff. I got $1 tombstones from the dollar store, resprayed them grey and pained some to glow in the dark, that's also super cheap and easy, glow paint is about $4.
Buy a blucky and corpse it, there are some great tutorials on here that show you how, also super cheap and easy to do.
Start small, then as you get more comfortable making things expand out to more complicated stuff.
