Being that today is the last day of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Death), I've decided to do something different and unusual. Día de los Muertos is celebrated from Oct 31st-Nov 2nd. This time is is used to celebrate the dead, like our loves ones that have passed.
Ideas: Dead flowers, cars, buildings etc.. user your imagination.
I hope this post isn't offensive to anyone, it is not my intention at all.
