First completed Build 2012 Shingle Creek Manor

Belinda completed our first 2012 tombstone. The basic design inspired by a tombstone in Highgate Cemetery, London. She built it in three parts for easier storage. It's also the first coffin cover of our cemetery.

Added a little LED lighting in the garage for an idea of Halloween night look.

    Very cool! That's brilliant to make it in pieces for easier storage.

    The blue LEDs on it are stunning!

      Thank you Lisa! We've done blue LED the last two years, it really does look the best.

      Thanks OB! We're still learning but she pretty much has the technique for tombstones perfected to the look we like best. Of course I say that, but every year we see what others have done and end up trying to make ours better.
