I've been looking through old discussions here for a couple of months now and finally decided to join to ask my own questions. The ideas you all have been sharing are so inspirational. I've loved decorating for Halloween for a while but this is the first year I decided to try my hand at some DIY...

Fully machined gravestones with custom epitaphs. $35each. Minimum of 4 per order. Shipping costs will be added. These are approx 16" x 24 and 3" deep. They come with LED lighting inside so you just need to hook up to a transformer. Really cool effect for your cemetery this Halloween!

Hi all, I have been asked to make a couple of tombstones to go in the window of a local bakers shop for Halloween. They have left the epitaph up to me with just a few conditions. No swear words or references to sex? in other words they have to be child friendly. I wanted to do something funny...

I put a coat of grey paint on several tombstones and then left them to dry in the garage. I came out later to find that my pug, while on a trip through the garage, decided to leave his dirty-pawed mark in the drying paint. Now the kids want me to turn this tombstone into a monument for a dog...

Plunging in this year with both feet! Of course, should have started earlier, but that's life! :D About to the aging stage on these two... And finishing them off overall. Then, going to make more! We like the funny epitaphs around here. :) Thanks to ALL here who have inspired, guided...
