You’ve managed to capture the absolute joy of making something and I cannot express how amazing that is to see!

You’re videos are such a spark to my creativity!

This came out AMAZING!!! Can’t wait to see what’s next. :))

[jherazob]

This was outright delightful! All the highs and lows of crafting, the excitement, finding obstacles, making then fixing mistakes, trying to figure out how to do something, then at the end the sheer satisfaction of finishing something :D

[OctaBech]

:o More of this, please!!! I also really enjoyed the "off the cuff" commentary on how the project was going - it had a nice contagious energy to it.

[thebuzzsawchannel]

I’d love to see you make more movie props!!! This was amazing!!

[hart-books]

New subby here! We do a full-blown haunt and are novices at making tombstones (and other pieces) but we've had such a blast putting everything together. We started in the spring, worked all the way through summer and I can't believe we're already here. I have been wanting to do this particular tombstone for a while now, and your DIY is the first I've seen that looks like an exact replica of the movie prop. Thank you SO much for your thoroughness and, oh my gosh, your attitude and grace with yourself--really, that's so important when you're doing props like this. It's a learning process, no matter how much of an expert (or novice) you are. Can't wait to give this a shot!!

[InkfallStudios]

This is so incredibly cool, I'm actually at a loss for words- it looks straight out of the movie!! I'd love to see you share more craft progress, especially when you're so excited to work on them.

[Sunstar]

Another amazing display of your talent. I enjoyed watching your creative process for your first time. Don’t let the neighbors see or else you’ll get orders for your whole neighborhood. ☺️

[Ryanstuff]

Incredible! I love how you call out the mistake you made but how to fix it as well. We've all been there.

[vicky]

I love watching the way you think of how to make things. It's amazing to me. I'm a 59 year old lady who watches because your processes are so interesting and fascinating. Your work is always stunning, from makeup, to costumes, to props. You are talented! Thanks for filming and sharing! :)

[VegetaDeppCosplay]

I love when we try something without even "know exactly what were doing" & it turns out awesome!!! 💙💙 The Middle one is so "scary realistic"!! Its def a favorite!

[chipmiller]

You’re one of the most talented cosplayers, Alyson. All of your work is amazing.

[TLZ]

Welcome to the fantastic world of elaborate prop building. You clearly have a knack for it. And that excitement you have is what will set you apart. Love it!

[CleoS-vxpd]

Ok, why is no one talking about the AWESOME ENORMOUS DRAGON SKULL in your house (top right 9.19)?!? Keep doing what you do, Alyson. You’re an absolute joy to watch. ❤️

[Matt_Hattr]

This is AH. MA. Wow! Yes, please do more prop making videos in the future! Your talent and creativity are endless!

[thereturningshadow]

Alyson,
You SHOULD BE absolutely proud of this creation. Don't let anyone take that away from you. You did an incredible job. Clearly this tombstone looks great on screen and really could be used in the movie.

[i.am.adrian]

This turned out FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing the entire process, it looks like a ton of hard work, but it came out amazing and you should be so proud! I hope you'll take on more props like this in the future, amazing amazing amazing!

[nicolemarie]

Always keep that joy and light in your heart! You did an amazing job.

[Akikai_]

I’ll watch anything that you make! Long videos, short videos, scripted, “off the cuff”, etc ☺️ Watching the progress is always equal parts interesting and inspiring and keeps me motivated for my own projects

[StaceyMilo]

You have inspired me and I am currently on day three of my life sized build. Holy cow what a ride it has been. I'm not new to building props but this one is labor intensive . Yours came out fantastic and I'm striving for as good as a result as yours!

[MikeFarnhamGalaxysEdgeGroup]

I've been watching your videos for a long time. Love all of your costumes but this is so awesome. Its great to see you walking and talking in your own videos! Keep doing things like this from time to time too.
