This item is considered a symbol of all Christians and their belief in the imminent coming of the Savior and Resurrection. Of course, in Russiancemeteries in the design of burial most commonly used Orthodox cross with a slanted crossbar. However, you can sometimes see Celtic or Latin.

The Beautification of the graves in the cemetery with his own hands: green spaces

The preferred method for decoration of graves in our country, despite the emergence of newfangled modern synthetic materials, still planting flowers, shrubs and trees. Of course, the burial site should be to choose bold, but quite undemanding plants. For flower girl is perfect perennials such as, for example, Barvinok, kamenolomy or host.

To demarcate the burial it is best to use ornamental shrubs, such as barberry, juniper, lilac or rose. The trees next to the graves are planted infrequently. The fact that their powerful root system can damage the base or monument memorials nearby. However, if the place around the tomb of many can be put next to it, for example, birch or spruce.

When choosing plants for graves, it is recommended to adhere to the following rules:

Artificial flowers

Of Course, live plants can be the best decoration of the place of burial. However, not everyone has the ability to care for green spaces. Therefore, the beautification of the graves in the cemetery with their hands, if it is located far away, often made using artificial flowers. Decorative elements such a plan may have very different design and be made of different materials.

Not worth buying for graves cheap fabric flowers. They very quickly lose their shape and fade in the sun. Best buy plastic. They look no less impressive and thus able to maintain its attractive appearance for much longer. The most durable option considered artificial flowers of plastics, rubber counterparts.

The Beautification of the graves of the tiles

This material at the place of burial is also used when the relatives are not able to come to the grave too often, and to care for plants.

Paving stone has a rather impressive appearance and durability. The beautification of the graves of its use produces approximately the same technology as the design of garden paths. Of course, to finish the burial place of the tile is better to invite experts. However, when lack of funds this procedure can be performed independently. Technology stack in this case includes several stages:

• The Tomb is thoroughly cleaned from weeds. It is best to handle it specially designed for this purpose herbicides.
• Next plot closely aligned.
• Then the grave is dug “trough” with a depth of about 15 cm that is filled (with reinforcement) concrete base thickness of 5 cm
• Once the cement-sand mixture solidifies (about 1.5-2 weeks), you can start laying the tiles.
• For attaching to the base using special glue. Put it on concrete, and tile with a notched trowel.

Before laying the elements on the edges of the grave should install a kerb or plinth under the fence. Improvement of graves with his own hands, using tiles allows you to create appropriately solemn atmosphere. This, as well as low cost concrete color finish and explains the popularity of such method of registration. The only when choosing tiles should pay attention to its color. Too bright he should not be.

How to install the monument on the tiles

Choose the most suitable tomb, performing such an operation, as the accomplishment of the grave, – half the battle. The monument need to be set correctly. The procedure is actually not as simple as it might seem at first glance. Supplied with a violation of the provisions of the technology, the monument will warp, fall off or altogether destroyed.

Rules of the monuments the following:

• Tile and concrete base and drilled two holes to the full depth.
• They insert the metal pins (special glue).
• Pins wornthe stand of the monument. It is also necessary to drill holes. The lower surface of the pedestal is pre-lubricated with glue. The pins should protrude above the surface.
• On the pins is put on the monument, the bottom sole which is also pre-greased with glue.

Use of mineral crumbs

When performing operations such as improvement of the graves, often also use fine gravel, which can be white or colored. Filling the place of burial of mineral crumbs if you wish, you can also make your own. Here's how:

• Ground is cut to a depth of approximately 10 cm.
• Exposed borders. For their manufacture you can use natural stone, store-bought ready-made items or special metal or plastic strip.
• Dug “trough” previously as a support for the monument of stacked channels, and then is sprinkled over the top sand layer of 5 cm, leveled and compacted.
• Then it is covered with permeable geotextile or a polyethylene film done in her holes.
• Then poured about 2-3 cm of sand.
• It fits about 2-3 cm of colored or white marble chips.

The beautification of the graves of rubble – the procedure is not too complicated. If desired, it is possible to make your own. Main – to do everything carefully and without haste.

Monument on earth

The Beautification of the graves in the cemetery (photo of this complex are slightly higher) with the use of crumb-operation budget. Therefore the trim of this type usually choose in that case, if the budget is somewhat limited. Next, let's look at how with this design you set the monument. After the concrete base on some of the graves is missing.

To order a monument and a flower girl is not misaligned, they usually have low-depth continuous footing. You can also just put the channels. Importantly, the support went beyond the burial pit (approximately 50 cm). To determine its borders by scrap. Within the pit he will be on the ground with ease. In the first phase on a support mounted flower stand. Further cement grout, glue and pins-the monument itself.

Of Course, work on the installation of the monument should be carried out in the period from spring to autumn. In winter, the soil on the grave freezes unevenly. And therefore in the warm season set on his monument will definitely warp.

Table and bench

These items if space allows, to supply the should definitely. The easiest way to buy a table and a bench. Samples beautification of the graves with the use of such additions can be seen in the photo below. Set table and bench usually at the feet of the deceased. However, the rule is optional. In this case, it all depends on the design of the memorial complex.

The Walkway around the tomb is also better to fill color chip, and to impose the paving slabs. In this case, the relatives of the deceased will not have to periodically pull the weeds in the area adjacent to the memorial site weeds.

As you can see, the improvement of the grave with his own hands – the operation is troublesome. The installation of the monument, fences and flower girl so perhaps it is better to entrust to specialists. The same applies to laying tiles. Crumb is also the burial place can be filled independently. The landscaping of the complex relatives of the deceased usually also perform on their own.
