I got inspired by this forum and decided to try to make my own tombstones this year. I have just completed one and have 4 more carved and ready to paint. I just had to share it with you all since I got such great information from the pics posted and tutorials. I live in California so it was hard finding the good foam. I used the foam insulation sheets, but they are the styrofoam stuff and doesnt cut as clean or nice. But, it does make the stones look older and more"carved". I am pleased with the result. Cant wait to finish the rest! Thanks everyone!

Every now and then I have a quiet chat with the skeletons in my closet-just so they don't come looking for me on their own

I love the epitaph and the paint job - it's nice to see a tan/sandstone finish!
