Front Yard Halloween Decorations

Grave Yard, Jason Vorhees

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/front-yard-halloween-decorations • Posted by Robin M.

I made the Jason Vorhees out of old clothes and stuffed it with even more old clothes. The head is a paper mache'd balloon, the mask is too. His machete is cardboard wrapped in aluminum foil...and then painted with red paint to look like blood. I draped black sheets on a bench and behind Jason. I used googled images from "Friday the 13th" movies so I could make the Camp Crystal Lake sign. It's a hand painted picture glued to a piece of cardboard - which is taped to the bottom half of a lamp stand. (I like using stuff that is just laying around the house.) I dug up the "flower bed" and made little plots. Some of the head stones are store bought, some I made out of cardboard and spray paint.
