The Craft Corner: Halloween Foam Tombstone

My Halloween cemetery October 2025

My Halloween cemetery is the centerpiece of my outdoor Halloween setup each year, and several of the stones are ones I've carved myself. If you've already read Little White Flowers, check out this tutorial I created for the headstone of one of the characters in that book. The video tutorial also includes a cemetery tour that showcases my other stones, including one made for a different Little White Flowers character. I made the tutorial and tombstone well before Little White Flowers was anywhere near publication ready (I don't think I even had a title for the book yet), so you also get some small insights into how the story has changed if you check out the video. 

The first tutorial does reveal a couple character deaths (even if the timing and details of those deaths have changed), so if you haven't read Book 1 yet, you may want to check out this tutorial instead. It uses the same technique, but the name on the tombstone is one I made up for the project rather than the name of a story character. It remains my favorite stone I've carved.
