Skateboard tombstones

Budah came up with the rad idea to make tombstones for Halloween with some of his old broken skateboards. The decks are a perfect shape!

We used the spray paint that gives a stone look. 20130930-165447.jpg When the paint was dry about an hour later we used stencils with black & silver sharpies for the words and dates. 20130930-165642.jpgThe one with the “AH” and the “18” is representing one of his favorite skateboard brands Anti Hero. 20130930-170009.jpg For the other four decks we used dates that were significant to our family. “1805” The year my great great great great great grandfather was born on my dad’s side. “1927” The year my maw-maw was born. “2007” The year Matt & I got married. We finished that one with “love never dies”. “2012” The year we moved into our family home that we were blessed enough to watch be built from the ground up. 20130930-170839.jpgWe were pretty pleased with the way they turned out. And having the quality time working on a craft project with my son that was his idea, well that was just bonus. The best part, as we finished he came up with yet another rad idea to do for Halloween with more of his old decks. I can’t wait for us to get started on it!20130930-171011.jpg
