DIY: Coffin Stamp

And so begins the Halloween season with the first DIY of the season. It's pretty much fall already, right? I'm always sad to see summer go but, honestly, fall is the best so it makes saying goodbye easy. I've been itching for Halloween since July and have started a few projects to help with the problem.

Admittedly, I have to say that this little stamp isn't going to be used just for Halloween.

With a standard eraser, exact-o knife, pencil and a block carver this guy came out pretty quickly. First, I drew the design onto the eraser then started carving away at the void areas. Once I was finished carving I glued the little guy onto a small jar lid and he was born. It's now a He.

When I cut myself, I'm telling Henry it was all your fault. :)
