In this video, we have some fun creating a fake fire pit or fake hot coals with just a few easy materials. This fake fire is great for Halloween as a witches fire! To create this amazing look of hot coals, we use some scrap insulation board, some orange Halloween lights, spray foam, sticks and some paint. However you can use about anything to create this.
We use insulation board as our base but you could use something as simple has cardboard. Then we built of the center a bit with scrap peices of the insulation board, then we attached the lights using hot glue and tape. We made some bigger logs using pool noodles. the process is very simple, you just take spray foam and apply it over the base and over all the lights and while its still wet add things like, Sticks, fake logs, fake bones, what ever you can think of that would make a cool looking fire pit. Once the foam has dried, just base it black with some spray paint, then dry brush the entire thing with some grey paint and then go over that with a dry brush of white paint! and you done! It's honestly that simple!

I KNOW THIS IS NOT YOUR IDEA .... but brotha, it was the best I have seen in a while ... thanks for sharing and I WILL BE MAKING THIS .. :)
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
I've seen a bunch of expanding foam coal pits over the years but this is the first time I've seen someone make one with carved pool noodles. That's super clever! I've also always wondered how feasible it would be to put plastic wrap or a clear bag overtop the light string so you could remove them later if any bulbs need replacing, or if you wanted to use them for something else.
LOL Thanks. You could probably do that with the plastic wrap, I bet it would work. I just won't ever use these lights for anything else. heck these had been sitting around the house for 2 years and never used them until now..
Nice job! I made one about two years ago. I'm still watching videos for more ideas.
I've saw where one creator used old 16 ounce water bottles and stuffed the lights inside of the bottles. They arranged them around as logs and sprayfoamed them. This was done so that if the lights quit working they could replace them.
That’s a good idea
Awesome! I made a mini one and used battery operated lights on a timer to use for my Halloween Byers Choice dolls. I just used a small bowl the size of the firepit I wanted...turned it upside down, covered it with plastic wrap and sprayed on the foam insulation. When it dried, it was super easy to peel off the plastic wrap. Then just drybrushed black, red and gray paint. Since it's essentially like a upside down spray foam bowl, it gave me space underneath for the lights and battery pack. It came out really good.
That’s awesome! What a good idea!There are soo many ways to do this type of thing..
The amazing Jay strikes again!⚡️💪🏼😂 That fake fire pit is beautiful and looks so real!!😲✌🏽
Lol thanks!
Great video! I don’t consider myself crafty at all but it was fun and easy to do. Mine turned out great. Thanks!
Awesome! Glad you made one! Ya this project is fun and easy!
Like the mix of ideas, looks great. I agree about the flicking lights. In Australia solar ones are great as don't need to run cords everywhere. But rarely found in orange or flickering despite the recent growth in celebrating Halloween. I need to update the fire under my cauldron so will definitely be stealing most of your idea! Thanks
Awesome! I hope it turns out great!
I got an electric fireplace and the see-through part that simulates cracked burning wood has got a hole in it and I'm gathering ideas on how to either completely remake it or patch the hole.
I am trying to make it see through so I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to do it.
Thanks for giving me ideas though this might work if I have to completely recreate it.
And it also when it comes to shaking a can it's a pretty nifty trick to strap it onto a reciprocating saw blade lol you can shake The living daylights out of it.
The lights appear to glow well enough through the pool noodles and spray foam in the build so you should be OK
Omg my friend, love this fireplace….I love it’s for thanksgiving and Christmas in my living room when I have people’s over for dinner. And turn off the sooner they live. Very nice just like real fire 🔥…thank you, been gone trying to finish my updating my furniture…but I’m back here and there’s…have a fantastic weekend…🙋♀️
Thanks, have a great weekend
That's 100% what I wanted to see!! I am planning a three witches-round-a-cauldron scene in my front yard for Halloween (I know, I know - it's only March😂)
It’s never to early to start! Glad the video helped some
That turned out boo-tful 👻. I enjoyed seeing all the steps. I also liked your chipmunk friend 😉😂Looking forward to more!!
🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡
Glad you enjoyed the video! LOL ya the chipmunk friend is a new twist, kinda fun may keep with that theme we will see
This is so entertaining , 🤣 what great editing. Also love the fire pit idea. Another great video 🤩
Thanks!! Been trying to make these more entertaining
That looks Amazing!!! I wanna try this for this year's spooky night ...
You should totally do it!
Awesome ! So much fun . Thanks !
Thank you
Pool noodle idea is freaking genius
Ya it is! wish I could take credit for it but I can't.. LOl its still a great idea and works awesome
I’m going to use the cling wrap from now on! 🤯🙌🏼 I subscribed to those channels, they’re good, thank you for pointing them out!
Ya the cling wrap was great! Your welcome! I always try to give credit where credits is due!
Great execution. I imagine it will be pretty convincing in the yard at night. I've been wanting to make one combined with a fog chiller so it will look like smoke is coming from it and spreading across the ground, but my front yard is tiny so I would never use it. Thanks.
The fog chiller along with it would be great idea! You should totally make one, you'll figure out how to cram it into your yard!
Im having such a hard time finding orange pool noodles 😫 Im on a fixed budget but every year I add to my decor, because when i was a kid a family in our town did an awesome haunted house! It was just their yard & porch, but they had spooky music playing you could hear from the end of the tree lined road, so the walk to the house added to the experience. When we got there wed have to walk past coffins & we never knew if or when someone was going to pop up! There were dummys in rocking chairs on the porch & one would always be someone in costume & theyd either moan or chase us 😂 & a hand would pop out of a slit in a curtain on the door & give us candy. Not many go all out anymore & that being my fondest menory of childhood, I like to try to recreate what I can at my house for the kiddos. This year Im adding a cemetery area with fence, fog, gravestones, bones & a zombie that pushes his way up out of the ground while making noises, two witches with a cauldron (just need to source green LEDS & 2 or 3 water misters. Ive also got a animatronic pumpkin that talks & a spidee that drops down out of the trees then pulls itself back up 😊 But Id love to make a faux fire for the witches cauldron. I think it would be the perfect addition!
Yes yes! We are in the same page.. I do what I do because when I was a kid there was a house that had dummy’s with wire attached and they would raise a hand on the dummy then talk through a speaker as the dummy to us kids.. they had other spooky stuff and it was my favorite place to go.. it made memories for me and I loved it! That is exactly why I do this! I know it’s making memories for all kinds of kids for years to come! Thanks for watching and sharing your memories
Wow, what a talent! Thank you soooo much for sharing 😉. Hugs from France
Thank you for watching
Great video! More please!
Well thank you sir! More on the way
Großartig!!!
👏👏👏
This is fa-boo-lous!
Thanks
Great job of combining two other artists to create your own piece. Another youtuber you might want to check is Stiltbeast for his use of spray foam and pool noodles. Thank you for inspiring me
Yes Stiltbeast studios, Allen Hopps does some amazing things! I have had the privelage to meet him at Transworld a few years back. Thank you for watching!
I made one last night and it is awesome!! Thanks again for this video ! 😊
Thank you for taking the time to watch
Awesome. Looks fantastic.
Thanks
Impressive and entertaining. Loved it❣️👍😍
Thanks Rozani! Lol way my entertaining than the lives
YW. It’s a whole different atmosphere when you’re having fun. 😃
That’s great, thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching
this looks great
Thanks bro
My Dude, what an amazing red glow!!! I love the idea of bones and skulls in the mix. What spray foam did you use?😊
Lol I don’t know I’ll have to grab the cans and look. Carries teacher wanted a fire pit for the first two weeks of school. I told her if she donated the spray foam I’d make it.. so I just used what she brought me!! Lol
Love this! Is it firesafe tho? I might use it for a play
That is debatable, some say spray foam is super flammable, however i've watched people put a flame to it, it starts to burn and when the flame is removed the flame goes out. That being said anything you make you can spray with a fire retardant and you will be good to go. I've been haunting my home for over 30years and never had a problem with spray foam catching fire.
Great video
Thanks
Is it always the "regular" foam or what happens if you use black foam?
Not sure with black foam, it may make it harder for the lights to shine through but honestly I don’t know. The can’t even get black spray foam around here to test it with
howdy love your videos going to try this next for my halloween display i do have a question i thought i was update on your videos but i cant find the little burlap scarecrow that is seating behind you in the corner hes been seating there for sometime. im i being a dork and not finding it or you didnt make one . could you let me know please keep up the awesome work
Lol yes I totally made it, however I never did a video on it. Guess I should make a new one and create a video
@@UnhingedProductions1 that be awesome thank you for the info
I’m confused. Is this your own original idea?
Lol
Seriously, though. It looks great.
Thanks@@seandevine3695
