In regards to all the great comments on my last post, I'm going to keep Halloween stuff right here again this year and I'm pretty sure you'll be seeing many Fed Ex box creations...it's my new favorite junk item to be creative with.
Gravestone Making in a Recession.
Fed Ex boxes are free...there are no excuses not to have a vast and full front lawn cemetery. These are Halloween cute for a client but with some extra time on detailing, I think the possibilities are endless.

"FedEx. When it absolutely, positively has to be in the ground overnight."
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet idea, I might have to borrow it this year, I was using foam like a chump.
ReplyDeleteDave, do you have any how to's on this project? I would love to see just how you got from box to stone.
ReplyDeleteLOVE these - how do you waterproof them, though?!?! :)
ReplyDeleteHoray! New projects! God, I love this blog!!
ReplyDeleteI just made one this weekend .... I will never look at boxes the same again.
ReplyDeleteBeacon Samurai, happy you discovered.
ReplyDeleteAs for all the other comments,thanks!
Because this was designed and created for a client, I had a 10 month imposed wait before I could go into any real details. Yet, that time is past...here's a link to more info...

Wendy, as for waterproofing, any good clear weatherproof sealant from the hardware store will do.
I love this idea. I took it a step further and used a variety of boxes for my 2010 grave yard. I'd like your opinion if you have the time.
