Finally Started

Boo insist on being in all photos

     Yes! I finally got started on the tombstone. In fact I got 3 layers of mache' done today. I probably would have gotten more done but between the humidity rising with the incoming storm clouds and it being real close to dinner time I had to stop. Not to mention I had to remove the stones at the bottom.  They were a little disagreeable with the whole mache process. Looking at it now I think I am going to leave them off or just turn the base into one big stone.  Not sure yet. I seriously doubt I will get anything done on it tomorrow because it is going to be Preds day at the zoo.  And you know I love my hockey as much as I do Halloween. Besides I have 36 more days until I start setting up the yard.
     I think 3 to 5 more layers should be enough then I can use the paper clay to make the bark. I think just one vine will be all I use on this one and just a small plaque on the base with a name and dates. Simple and understated.
