See several Halloween decoration ideas that customize and make the dollar store Halloween tombstone decorations look even better for your outdoor haunted cemetery yard display, haunted house, or home haunt.

Not to mention there are so many ways you can get these results you're sure to achieve the right look for your haunt. We customize Styrofoam graveyard tombstones by either doubling them up together or adding thicker foam sheets behind. We glue everything together using great stuff expanding foam insulation from the local hardware stores. We even add some larger bases below some of the Halloween gravestones for a realistic variety that you would see in a real haunted and spooky cemetery. We add weight, PVC pipe, and metal rebar to go into the ground so it stays put and doesn't fly off in the wind to the neighbors yard.

I think it's so cool that you guy's do this together. Not to mention how much fun you get out of it. Thanks for the ideas. Halloween 24-7-365!
I do to. I do up my entire yard, but my wife doesn't get involved at all. It's gotten to the point that it's starting to become far too much work for one person, but I just can bring myself to give it up.
P
wow. lovely. Tombstones are awesome. Thank you for sharing your family too. Your little boy is adorable
Nice tutorial. I've been thinking about what to do with my old 99 cent tombstones.
One quick suggestion: Grab a 1x4 piece of scrap wood, drill your pvc holes in it and use it as a template for future tombstones. You can then use it when placing rebar into the ground. It helps me when designing my cemetery scene by swapping out gravestones from place to place without have to reinstall the rebar for each tombstone. :)
This is exactly what it’s like when I’m trying to work on props with my kids around... only now they’re getting to be old enough to help me. Your video was one of the most informative I’ve seen on this subject, but also made me feel like I was just hangin’ out with some friends. Thanks for sharing!
We don't finish work as fast as we used to but the little ones make it better. I always feel like I'm forgetting things now but that could also mean I'm just getting older. We have always tried to be ourselves with the hopes that others felt like they were just hanging with us so that's really nice to hear. Thank you very much for your kind words it means a lot.
Moss grows on the DARK side of the rock. In the North hemisphere, it would be the North side because the sunlight comes from the South, but in the South hemisphere it would be the South side.
You two are so awesome. I wish I could get my partner to be this into Halloween and prop making. Thank you for everything you all do and the videos. Take care and be safe!!!
I've never cared for styrofoam stones. I've always made wood stones for a western type them to my cemetery. This makes me wanna use the foam stones. You guys did amazing work transforming original dollar store stones. Definitely going to try this.
That's fantastic!!! Please share pictures if you do 😁
A nanny is a life saver!
Awesome!! I grew up with decorations for every holiday, no matter how small. Halloween was always my favorite. The creepier, the better. But, I can no longer decorate like I used to, due to some health issues. So, I'm handing down all my skulls and creepiness to my daughter. She is the heir to my 'witch hat.' She's crazy about Halloween. I've trained her well. 😉 I have nothing bad to say about any of your awesome tombstones. Every one of them gets a 10!! I thought of an idea, though. Not sure if it would look OK. You could take one of your handy-dandy skewers and etch some squiggly cracks into the foam to make it look cracked. Or, draw them on with a black sharpie after the paint dries, and smudge them ever so slightly with a cloth so they wouldn't look so defined and to make it look like it's shadowed a little. Just a thought. Thanks for the video! You just got another sub! Happy Halloween!!
💀😱🎃☠️👻
The haunted-baby animatronic looks so life like! ;) You two are the best!!!
LOL! Did you see the end, stopping to smell the dead roses :P
OMGosh YES! *LOL* That kid is such an adorable goof-ball. Kinda like his parents!!!
This video has more “that’s what she said” moments than i have time to point them all out.
I think some older tombstones just break down over time and fall over. Nice job.
Missed you guys! Thank you for posting. GREAT DIY and so fun to see that 'lill man already a toddler! Happy Halloween!
You guys are great. So cool to see a couple working together and having a great time. Awesome example to others. 👍
This video does not deserve ANY dislikes at all! Those have got to be some of the most realistic tombstones I've seen!
🎃🖤🖤🎃🖤🎃🎃🖤🖤🎃🖤🎃
From a headphone user, I disagree.
I will respectfully disagree. This video was to long.
I still give this a thumbs up.
lanesteele240 I was worried for the kid! He's just running around and I could only picture him getting into something!
I'll definitely try to talk my mom into doing this stuff, hopefully my "kids" (the chickens) don't decide to try and eat the foam as I'm working!
Industrial Blue Just a thought...instead of white, what about some glow-in-the-dark paint? That would give it a little creepy glow.
Hey there 👋😊,
It's SO nice to meet people who love Halloween--like me!! I am thrilled to watch your videos and laugh with you and your baby!
You guys remind me of me and my husband 😂
Happy haunting to you and yours.
☮️ Leslie
their awesomeness knows no bounds! Can't wait to attempt this!
Lol! Thank you and we hope you try!
Oh how we Missed your videos! This was awesome! Love the casual mountain face in the background... hope y’all are doing great!
Wonder if they did a.video on that.
How fun. Love the video. Will definately try. Thank you...
Sanding is my least favorite sound but i still watched this the whole way through. Love them!
I wanted to thank you guys for your videos. I took this example and made it our own this year, keeping the text details on the $1 store foam. Great ideas in this video, and super thrifty!
I loved it! I’ve also watched your haunted house facade videos over and over! My yard has some of your ideas! Thanks for the inspiration!!!!
Thanks so much for liking and hearting my comment!
Of course! Thank you for the comment :)
Also where did you guys get the foam for the spooky fountain for your haunted house and western town?
Awsome tombstones,.... and yes it is the north side
Lol, I have a few of those shedding tools, tho I typically use them to groom up/shed out our horses. But I love multi use tools, and can see myself robbing my grooming box in the very near future for a few Halloween builds myself. Thanks for the awesome ideas!
We hope you do!
you guys are pretty brilliant with your creations.. I'm going to have to try some of this for sure!
Thank you guys for these videos. Helped me a ton with my tombstone props. I made a video and posted it on my channel. Thanks again!
Moss North Side.. is damp longer. and less light... Looks Great.. I have used Fleck Stone Spray paint for texture also... Happy Halloween !
cool vid now im gonna fix all my crappy tombstones that ive had for years. its funny i was looking for a vid like this for a long time
You done an amazing job. Great ideas to do for my yard. They were all awesome.
This was great. I love that you show all the different ways to transform cheap crap to something beautiful. I do wish they had names on them. I’d like to see your technique for that. I gonna try this thanks so much
Just watched your video. Great ideas for the cheap tombstones that like to fly away in a good wind. As for finish work. I found using Rustolium Granite spray paint for a base color and the mist with a flat black really mimics the old stone color. I have also use the Stone paint you can buy at any box store or Walmart. Use this for the base and then color how ever you like. The stone paint also will hide the edges where your layers come together. Keep up the good work.
Great ideas!! We spend so much money on Halloween BC my 5 year old loves Halloween. Your son is so cute!!!
That's a cool video! Thanks for sharing.
Moss grows on the north side guys!!! I also attach dried and dead vines and ivy to my tombstones as well!
Awesome!
Love your stones! Your final display- wow. It looks like a real cemetery, and the best yet, its a very simple how-to; which most home haunters love. The baby is adorable! Growing up fast!
Thank you 🎃🎃🎃
Another superb vid in the bucket!! GREAT VID YOU TWO!!! Wait...you three! Can't forget lil' Harrison ;)
What a kickass tutorial. Thanks and appreciate you sharing this stuff! Do more if you can!
Oh, also...that shot of the tombstones and fog is very reminiscent of "Return of the Living Dead Part II", where the zombies rise from the grave. Check out that scene on here when you can and you'll see what I mean! Graveyard Scene, Return of the Living Dead part II.
Halloween is among us so let's embrace it, for it only gets better from here on out!!
Thanks! We'll have to check that out 😁
Fantastic....love them so much. I have to say I did use dollars store tombstone and built them up as well. You guy's make me want to go out and build some more lol. Just love your videos. I remember how hard it is to do anything at all with a curious toddler. Have fun!
Thanks for the tips guys! I was at the Dollar store the other day picking up moss and such for tombstones and pillars I always walk by their foam tombstones laughing cause they are a joke but, this video kinda opened my eyes that I can make them better .. so excellent tip! I now have 28 sheets of OSB 1/2" painted both sides of ALL black and 9' Rebar inset in the ground after my OK from PG&E etc. Am sick lol apparently I got the shingles three days ago doctor said no work I said SURE NP, got home and was carrying around sheets of OSB lol gonna be a LONNGGG month. I look forward to your next video tip! ~Cat
Oh no!!! Be sure to rest up well. Yes, we wanted to help people because they could be on a budget or new to haunting or just wanting to upgrade their older tombstones. There are so many ways to improve on them it will be fun to see what you come up with 🦇🎃👻
Thanks for the video! I was in the garage looking at my sad tombstones and was thinking about reinforcing them then found your new video. Those look so good.
Woo Hoo!
Great video, thanks for sharing your ideas really inspired me to try something. What do you reccomend to use for adding words and names etc just curious.
This gave me the idea to give my mom's old beat up tombstone's a new life by using great stuff to fix holes, and to give them all new more realistic paint job.
Just an idea... I went to a local hot tub dealer and asked if they had any old/used hot tub covers? And all I had to do is separate the aluminum bits from the Styrofoam and I could take the foam for free then you get 6 headstones from each full cover.
Great to see you two in HAUNT MODE, even if it's just Harrison's nap time long ;) That Great Stuff can/applicator is the bomb!!!
Hahaha!!! It's hard not to nap when he does 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome job!
These look AMAZING! The only thing I would have done different was put the moss more of the bottom of the graves!
Great tutorial guys, you really made those cheesy box store Styrofoam tombstones look much creepier and more realistic. We have a great, historic cemetery in our town and since I'm going to be over that way, I think I'll drop in and take a walk around later today.
Thanks bunches for taking the time to make us a video, it's very much appreciated.
Wish we could join you on your walk. Have an awesome day 😊
Absolutely loved this!!!
Awesome video!!! Love all the tombstones and when Harrison stopped to smell the flowers. So adorable!!! 🧡🎃🧡
Thank you 🎃
Have you ever tried using a heat gun with this type of open cell insulation to create a more pitted or textured finish?
Great stuff!! Most impressive!!
Really cool! Cute baby too!!!
Thank you! 😊
Really great tips!
Great Job, love them all!
Foam insulation works better. Glidden Gripper joins foam better also😉
I'm SO glad to see these. You know we've missed your videos and decorating.
But now I'm going to have to "fix" all my foam storebought tombstones, lol.
I know zombies are pretty much last year, but I could see Harrison dressed as one, shambling through the cemetery.
Love it guys. 31 days!
Woo Hoo!!! Thanks Fred
Loved the tombstones did a great job with weathering the tombstones Chris and Jienna
Great to see you both back. OMG how I hate Styrofoam and all those floating little beads everywhere. Great fun watching, can't wait to see what you guys do for Halloween at the house. What's up with the rock wall in the background.... your nosy subscriber.
I came to your channel because Monster Tutorials mentioned your channel in his DIY tombstone video. I'm glad that I stopped by because I feel your struggle about trying to craft with younger kids. My kids are older now so I am slowly getting back into it. I love your humor and I'm looking forward to looking at your video log and see the new videos you come up with.
Me too, monster tutorial pointed ya'll out so I followed, subbed, and hit the bell.
Well that looks like fun! Nice to see the variety of approaches your took. I think people tend to forget that there's so many different "right" ways to make something. That's an awesome rock wall, too!
Thanks buddy!
Lol! My favorite parts of the video is your little boy!!!
Thank you!!! 😊
You guys did a great job.Love the grave yard.
Thanks!
fantastic!
Moss grows on the north. And great work
They look great guys
Thank you!
Omg I’ve missed you guys so much!!! I had so many dollar store tombstones That had been giving to me that I didn’t know what to do with, and it really helped to fill up my graveyard and the realism it amazing!!! I love you guys so much so glad to see you back! 💕❤️👹🦇
Your child is the luckiest child in the world to have parents like you.
Thank you Ron. We are so blessed and love having a little one.
Yea ...when the kids come along....the Halloween prop building fun is over... along with the video watching fun being interupted by kids!!!!
Aww, love seeing Harrison. Great tombstones guys! I never would have thought to upgrade dollar store cheap-o tombstones like that. They look great! I really liked the one where you scraped off the RIP and made it look like old bumpy granite. ❤️ Looking forward to more videos tho I know it’s hard with the little one 👶🏼
Thanks!
Love that you guys are doing this during nap time. That's the only way I can get any stuff done. Can't wait till my 3 are old enough to help with the haunt. Love the video.
Huge hugs for having 3 beautiful babies!!! Our one keeps us on our toes.
Ya when theyre that little they get into everything. anyways we love you guys. My older two love watching with me. Now I think I need to go to the dollar store and get some tombstones.
Love it.
my favorite?? the end shot!! bye Harrison
Awww, that's ours too 🖤
These are great!!
I love your tombstones! I can't wait to make these. And y'all made me laugh! So awesome!
I think they're all great !!!
He's got some pretty wonderful, loving parents.
I've often wondered about different ways to improve these very tombstones! I have quite a few. I love the ideas you guys came up with, definitely outside of the box and good results! Thanks guys.
Awesome!
This tutorial is the most comprehensive I've ever seen! I can't wait to try it myself
Let us know if you do 😊
By the way ...moss grows on the north (or shady) side, in the northern hemisphere. Great tombstones by the way! Your little guy is such a cutie...I have a Granddaughter that just turned two..... they're a trip at that age! Hahaha. Stay safe you guys!
I love it!
The final results are outstanding! Kudos!
Great tutorial , I need more tombstones!
Awesome!
The damp side. Moss grows on the damp side of things.
Often that's the north side, since it doesn't get much sun, but in a shady, damp environment, it can be any side.
Looks like a lot of Fun you 2 and live baby 😂
Can also leave the Wooden skewers in the foam and just clip off the ends. After that you push them into the foam a bit past the face and fill hole end with putty. Then you have the added strength of the wood bits in the joint without seeing them.
That's true it would. We pulled them out so we had them for other projects but foam does glue them pretty well. You caught us being cheap 🤣
We've missed you guys, so glad you are still haunting and sharing it with all of us. Great video!
😊
You should put funny puns or names on them! Amazing work
How hard would it be to build one of those heated foam cutter things? I have easy access to a soldering iron and some metal clothes hangers. 😀
It's great to see you guys making props again!
The struggle is real. Got my idea. Got my props. Hubby having triple by pass surgery throws everything out the window. Love the acupuncture tombstones
We're sorry to hear that. Hope everything goes well for him.
very cool can't wait To try some of these things to take my cemetery to the next level
OK, you both have beautiful smiles. 😁
Thank you so much!
That's amazing
Wow great ideas! Thanks guys!
Thanks!
Awesome video! Glad you're back. I'm putting my graveyard together and this helps a ton!! I have 7 dollar store tombstones to "enhance" you gave me some great ideas.
Cheers,
ET
Thanks you, I'm sure your tombstones are going to be awesome. We have been enjoying watching your creative ideas aswell. Keep up the good work
You guys are awesome!❤️
🎃🎃🎃
LOVED it! You guys always do amazing tutorials but I'm loving this dollar store revamp. Plus baby haunter roaming around is always adorable.
Hey guys!! Happy to see the kid working on his 'Harrison's Fiberglas Revue'. I'm glad you can still do a few props here and there. PS that's a fun EPS rock background!
Haha! Thanks, not sure what it's gonna be used for but it's making a fantastic backdrop 😂🤣😂
Great video! Should have dressed Harrison up as baby Frankenstein as he was wondering through the spooky graveyard! So Cute!
Haha!!! Awww, yes we will have to start thinking ahead 🖤
really love the Moss technique thanks for sharing guy !! HFL!!
Woot! Tiny prop maker!
Awww, Yay!
