Dead Rock Stars Halloween Decorations

A celebrity cemetery is a great way to go for this party. Give them a rock star touch with glowing paint and a bit of glam.

Glow-in-the-Dark Glam Rock Star Graves

If your party is outside, plotting faux gravestones around the yard is easy, as many come with stakes. Or you can buy garden stakes and insert them to the gravestone yourself.

For indoor parties, consider attaching an easel or cardboard flap to the back of the gravestone and placing them around the main room.

To Glitz Up a Gravestone:

  1. Purchase hard foam tombstones and paint them black using acrylic paint. (Spray paint and adhesives might "melt" the foam depending on the material.)
  2. Use glow-in-the-dark paint to write a rock star's name on the grave, highlight edges, or outline features molded on the gravestone such as R.I.P.; allow paint to dry.
  3. Lightly brush white glue (that dries clear) on the gravestone.
  4. Sprinkle black glitter on the glue.
  5. Pool black satin fabric around the base of the gravestone to make it more of a "stand alone" piece.
