On Halloween Day (when all the kids were at school) we decorated the house and installed the cemetery entrance. It is a tradition in our household to take the day off from school and work to do this (my kids home-school anyway). We spent about 8 hours decorating and assembling everything but it was well worth it!!!!

I have included more pictures of the total effect, thanks for looking! See you next year!!!

BTW - I have a blog (who doesn't) I post all kinds of stuff on - kind of a distillery for the weird...

in looking at your pictures i notice you already have a lot of brickwork: house, mailbox, etc. did you ever consider decorating your columns to coordinate? just a thought.

Very Cool! I like the Burtonesque look. I need to build some as well and I am tempted to use your idea.  Hope you don't mind.

Wow! That is a great idea with the fake column shape on top of the rectangle column stand/holder for your lights/speakers. I used a flicker circuit on some old wall sconces to put them on some cemetery columns but I didn't think i would get the chance to make them for this year. These columns are sooo easy! (do you mind if i use your idea?) THanks, and they look great!
