indyclone25's indy themed backyard area
hello folks,
my wife gave me a corner of her garden to do a Indiana Jones themed set.
after working on it for about 3 weeks we finished on father's day
( we still need moss for the idol altar) but i think it looks cool , let me know what you think
what the yard section looked like at first
then with some plants and tiki lights ( solar powered --- from kmart)
then with some cement to make a patway with cement stencil
i chimeara ( hope i spelled that right) and added some plants inside the mouth
then i bought some bamboo furniture and bamboo stick and fencing
and then making masks from a kit sold at kmart to hang on the fence with planters behind to make it look cool
then some more add ons , and old trash can filled with expanding foam to make it look like rock and spray paint
and ta, da!!! finished ( except for moss on the altar)!!
That is awesome. Must be fun to bring people over and show them. Nice work! (you must not have young kids....as that would all be destroyed in less then 2 days)

Nice. Just curious, does he know of or enjoy Indy? My sons are 4 and 9 months. The 4 year old is already growing fond of Indy via Lego Indiana Jones video games, and the sound track which I play in my car all the time. (he can even hum the main theme! )
He's seen parts of LC and KOTCS, but I'm looking forward to when I can sit with him and show him all 4.

well he has a screename here--- indyclonejr.
but he rarely leaves any notes, he likes the movie and has all the gear, but it is a toss up between his movie making and film reviews he does on youtube ...

Mark, that is damned cool! I decked out my rooftop patio with fern plants and oil-burning tiki lamps to create a jungle vibe but you've gone above & beyond that. Way to go!
You should mount a flashlight to point down onto your stone path, replicating the beam of the light trap! Show it off at night during night-time BBQs!
